Windows 7 won't install
Hello, my friend has an Asus g50v laptop. He was looking to install Windows 7, so I walked him through the process. He completely formatted his hard drive...
It's been a day now, and he can't get it to work. He keeps getting a "error code 0x80070003" during installation. It says that the required files to install it can not be found. He has burned 3 different kinds of DVDS. A DVD+R Memorex, An HP DVD-R, and a Verbatim DVD-R. All at 4x verify with IMGburn. They all seem to pass the verification process, so I don't know what the deal is. He is installing the RC off of the windows website. I'm clueless.
Perhaps the other pc he is using to burn the discs has a bad burner? Is his DVD drive messed up? I don't think so... he used it a lot for burning his home videos, and they worked great. I'm gonna' try and get him one of the leaked builds to see if it helps him... But if anyone has any other suggestions, I'm all hears.
EDIT: I'm sorry, I accidentally posted this in the wrong board. Can it be moved to the installation & setup section?
