Error Code 80070017 Solution

to get past the error code without downloading a bunch of useless hardware, do the following. After you burn the iso to a DVD, go into my computer, right click on the Drive that has the burnt DVD in it, Copy and Paste all files to your hard drive (I made a new folder on the desktop). DO NOT TRY TO BOOT TO THE CD!!! You have to be logged on to XP to install this way. after copying the files open the folder and click on the setup.exe. ENJOY

    Hey Dude;

    The thing is that the Anti-virus is interrupting the installation;

    Try doing a fresh install after formatting the whole drive and it will go smooth:)

    Yes, It is work! BTW, I would like to share my experiance. I had faced a same captioned problem when I install the New Vista in my HP Desktop (P4 3Ghz, 512MB RAM, DVD drive, 250GB HD, on broad display). I found that the HP's DVD drive can't be 100% compatible with the Vista beta DVD disc, but it can be read the others DVD. After that, I did successed to install the Vista through my LG or Pioneer DVD drive. Also, "RodeoinProStyle"'s method is worked too. ;)
