Hello Dark Basic.
We need a little more information to determine why this has happened.
So if you could reply to your post answering these questions, I could gladly
tell you whats probably going wrong!
Ok, here they are:
1. Has your DVD driver shown any bugs or acted faulty in the past?
2. Have any error messages popped-up? What are they?
3. Have mulitple error messages popped up very excessively?
4. Has the program autorunned itself, or did you open the setup.exe manually?
5. What is your RAM size?
The most probably thing, at this point, that I can come up with is that, if
you don't have enought RAM (Check your 'My Computer' properties for at least
512 MB) then any error message can pop up at any time, usually multiple ones.
Also, the errors might include it spontaniously closing and asking for an
error report, or saying that there is a faulty volume of the disk and to
insert another.
Another possibility is that your drive is faulty and drops its semi-stable
ability to read the disk properly, which could happen for no appearant
reason.
Take notice!, It will never be the installation CD's fault. It will usually
be on your part, sorry.
Troubleshooting for not-enough-RAM is very easy. Just by one at the store!
Of course, youll need to detect the ram that you have, the type, the size you
need (enough to get you over 512 MB), and you can do this all by going on
your computer creators website (example would be emachines). However, this
does involve going inside the computer! But dont think its a hassle, everyone
does it!
It will also boost the speed of your computer by a mile!, depending on what
size you buy. Stick it in the appropriate slot, make sure the computer is off
and unplugged, ground yourself, and then there you go! I strongly reccomend
an internet article to refer to, something of off EHow.com or something!
Troubleshooting for drivers is where your in deep water! You may have to
take it to a shop, or install a new driver. But this depends!! Don't go
buying drivers willy-nilly on us! Its to costly to do. Make sure of it first,
by filling out that above questionare I gave you!!!
You can also call the Vista help center at Microsoft, (1-800-MICROSOFT),
they just opened up 2 weeks ago.
So fill it out ASAP and Ill let you know!

My machine is a Pentium 4 2.53Ghz, 512Mb RAM, 256Mb Video, Sound Blaster MP3+
USB, Motherboard ASUS P4S800D-X, DVD 16X and i have installed Windows XP
spanish version SP2. I've downloaded the ".iso" from microsoft and i burned
it. When i tried to run the "setup.exe" it says "La aplicacion o DLL
x:\Sources\WDSCORE.dll no es una imagen valida de Windows. Compruebe esto
contra su diquete de instalacion." and then "The file 'autorun.dll' could not
be loaded or is corrupt. Setup cannot continue. Error code is [0xC1]". When i
boot from the dvd the installation crashes after i wrote the product key.

Hola, DarkBasic
Yes, I do belive that your computer probably needs more RAM.
The error messages and consistency you have is definatly symptoms
of this! However, you have the correct amount of RAM, you say.
Well here's the thing! Your graphics driver is probably taking up some
of that RAM and you probably have less than 512. Dont check any non-virtual
source from your computer. Don't check any information booklets that came with
your PC! Go to Start, then RIGHT click on My Computer and click Properties,
then look for the word RAM in the window and check the 3 letters that come
before the
word RAM. If its below 512 thats the problem! And the solution I already
gave you!
If you have already done that, or it says 512, then you probably have a DVD
reading error. Consult your computers manufacturer, or the company that the
driver is from.

Thank you. I have a Geforce 6200 and 512 of RAM "Dual Channel". The memory
and the graphic card aren't the problem.
