Error 0x80070570 Please help!
Aaaargh! I successfully installed the 32-bit windows 7 on my computer, upgrading it from windows XP. I spent an hour realizing how awesome the new OS is before deciding i needed to reformat to be sure i was rid of all spyware/malware. After trying to do the clean install, I keep getting the "Windows cannot install required files" error right when the install starts "expanding". It goes to 1% and then stops. I am installing this from an ISO off of a 4GB flash drive.
Here's what I have tried so far:
Redownloading and rewritting the flash drive (several times)
Updating the BIOS drivers
Restarting the installation without a reboot
Running chkdsk on the flash drive
None of these things have worked for me. I know that it has been suggested to set the hard drive (i think..) to SATA or AHCI, but this goes right over my head. Any help would be great
Is there anything else to try?
