I have tried to install Vista useing sevral diffrent methods. What I have
tried is installing the files after burning to a DVD directly from Roxio,
useing ISObuster to extract the files and then burning it. And then just
useing the extracted file. I tried both installing after startup and booting
from the DVD and trying to install straight from the files. I have tried
installing fresh, and upgrade, tried installing on my extra HD and the one
with my current version of Windows XP Pro. I get the following error
messages:
Error [0x0604ad] IBS Callback_CopySetupFiles:An error occurred while
copying Setup files. Error code is [0x80070241][gle=0x00000241]
Setup was unable to locate required installation file [Boot.wim]. Please
verify that your installation source is valid and restart Setup.
Error: 0x80070002

any ideas. I tried to redownload but it wont let me, says I am over my
number of activations. Please help
 
I had the same error message when I downloaded VISTA BETA 2 yesterday and did
the install. I ended up doing a restore. I was really looking forward to try
the new OS, but oh, well, hopefully someone knows how to get this fixed and
posts a reply and I'll try again. If not, I guess I'll have to wait for the
final release.
 
Well, I tried copying the setup files to a new folder in my desktop and run
the installation from there. It made no difference. At about 52% of copying
files, I still got the Windows Setup error message: "An error occurred while
copying Setup files to your local machine. Error code is [80070241]".

I re-downloaded the ISO file but used a different download manger which I
downloaded from Cnet,,com called "Free Download Manager 2.0. The download was
successful and using my Nero 7 software I burned it to DVD successfully. I
ran the tool that Microsoft provides to see if my machine could run VISTA and
it said yes. I attempted the installation again. Before copying files it
told me that I would need to get updated versions for my programs: Power DVD,
Check For Real Player Update, Real Player, Rhapsody, and my newly purchased
"Windows Live One Care", after VISTA installation. It also warned me that my
1394 Net Adapter and 1394 Net Adapter#2 will not work and instructed me to
get updated drivers from the manufacturer. My machine has an AMD Athlon cpu
that runs at 1.53 Ghz, 768 MB RAM, ATI Radeon 9550 256MB 4/8x AGP Video
Card, Creative Audigy 2Z Audio Card running Windows XP2 Home Edition. So, I
inserted the newly burned installation DVD and to my surprise it actually
copied all windows files 100% with no error messages. It did take a long time
to do so, but it did it. It then proceeded to complete the rest of the list
of the installation. It finally got to the point where it was finalizing the
upgrade and at the very end it said "The upgrade was unsuccessful" and it
restored my PC back to XP. So what went wrong this time? I have no clue.
