Error 0x80070017, requesting gregrocker's assistance but any is welcom
I have just built a new gaming PC and according to every forum my hardware and the installation of said hardware is sound. I have an ISO verified copy of windows 7 but during file expansion it hangs at 22% and gives me the above mentioned error message. My ram is compatible and correctly configured in BIOS. I am using one stick and have tried all slots. I have used SATA config AHCI and IDE to no avail. Attempts at booting from a USB drive have also been unsuccessful. My PSU is more than enough and according to 12 different instructional videos as well as the various instructional manuals everything is installed correctly. I have reset CMOS jumper and was again met with failure to install Win 7. Is there anything else I can try? Endless forum searching has left me quit discouraged and more than a little confused.
