error

Does anyone know what the error code 80070241 is

try reburning the ISO at a low speed, 2x recommended, also do a CRC check on the ISO to find out its integrity. Nero MD5 Verifier is a recommended choice. If setup still fails, its likely a bad download.
I use the one from Ahead Nero http://ww2.nero.com/nero6/eng/Nero_MD5_Verifier.html
Here are the MD5/CRC values for x86 or x64 depending on which every ISO you downloaded:
x86 - File Size = 3.12 GB (3,355,598,848 bytes) - CRC Value = 0x67E089E0 - MD5 Value = 0E733AB1A8E8FF9A8684FD3639332773 x64 - File Size = 4.01 GB (4,309,368,832 bytes) - CRC Value = 0x48697711 - MD5 Value = E43502D0A15EADD551119D5639859E04
Paste the MD5 Checksum for either x64 or x86 depending on which one you want check in Step 1, Step 2 - Browse to where you stored the ISO on your drive and open it and it will automatically start the varification process and generate the has in the third field, if it matches Step 1, then you are safe. -- -- Andre Windows Connected | http://www.windowsconnected.com Extended64 | http://www.extended64.com Blog | http://www.extended64.com/blogs/andre http://spaces.msn.com/members/adacosta

i hve tryed that and have downloaded it 8 times the md5 hash is diffrent in all the downloads would this indicate that the problem is with microsofts servers as i know of numerous people who have had this error and have downloaded it more than once and all downloads have diffrent hash values

You guys are not going to believe this. I finally got Vista to install, heres what happened and how I did it:
1. I pasted the download link into FIREFOX of all things. that is the only way I could get a good download.
2. Burned the ISO to DVD using Roxio DVD builder @ 2X speed.
3. Copied all the install files to the hard drive in a folder labeled "Vista Install" and ran the installation from there. It took 2 1/2 HOURS to install.
When Vista started for the first time, all I got was a black screen, working mouse, and the build number noted in the lower right corner. NO graphics at all and nothing works. I had to roll back the installation and am now back to XP.
Talk about disapointment! Any thoughts? My machine is a 1.4 Gig celeron with a GIG of RAM

Activation means the computer goes on the interweb and says hello to Microsoft....

Unable to open Image File after entering CD-Key.
I have one HDD with XP Pro Other is a Clean drive.
My XP drive has Defender and One care Do I need to remove certain Software before trying to install Vista? Hardware issues also...like USB devices?
Any assistance will be appreciated.
