I have a slight twist on the 80070241 error while trying to install. Most
suggestions involve burned DVD's which mine is not, as I 'm using MS DVDs. I
get the above error at 1-3% of file copy every time. I have used the same
disk on a different machine with no problem in file copy. The problem
machine is my Inspiron 6000 (only 5 mos old) laptop. I am trying to install
on a Virtual PC with at least 700 MB ram allocated to it, and the 16G
dynamic drive (same as on the machine where it worked BTW). If its not media
or download quality, and both HDs are IDE not SATA then what is it? I have
seen references that people have successfully installed in Virtual PCs and
Inspirons. I am at a loss. Any advice would be appreciated.
 
thanks for the info Chad..that article helped get me up and running with my
VM. That article also gives a tip about accessing the VM via RDP. Does that
mean the host accessing the guest via RDP? I enabled the settings and was
able to access the guest machine from a seperate physical PC on my network
via RDP but not with the host machine. Am I missing something?
