I've attempted to install x86 many times. I keep getting this error right at
21% the third step of Upgrade.
 
Its possible that its just a glitch you are experiencing as a result of
trying upgrade from Windows XP. I would try clean install instead or re-run
setup, I have experience similar issues with setup, after retrying, it
installs (but this is a clean install scenario).
 
When I do customize and select "VISTADISK F:" (122 gb partition) it errors at
27% of Expanding files.
 
I also get the situation where it gets to about 27% expanding and then says
it must reboot to continue. It reboots to a black screen. I inspected the
disk following this and I have the following logs: smi-installer.log in
$win..\windows, setupact.log and setperr.log in $win..\sources\panther,
setupact.log and seupact.log in $win..\sources\rollback, and ntuser.dat.log,
bcd-template.log, components.log, default.log, sam.log, security.log,
software.log, system.log in $win..\windos\system32\config and schema.dat.log
in $win..\system32\wmi\store\machine.

The smi-installer log seems to indicate it was [done}. The setupact.log in
the panther folder had lots of stuff, a few warnings but nothing at the end
to indicate a failure. The ones in rollback folder seems to be what happened
after I brought XP back up.

Anyone interested in these files for diagnostic purposes?
 
Mine doesn't even ask to reboot, just errors.
