Hello,
I have never seen this prompt before.
Hmm, can you grab the log files when you are getting the error message?
Use this article to locate the logs:
927521 Windows Vista setup log file locations
http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;EN-US;927521
Log files could be at either one of these two phases.
You are either in this phase:
Windows Preinstallation Environment phase
or this phase
Online configuration phase
Can you collect the log files, zip them up and send them to me.
Send them to me.
Remove the online portion of my displayed email address to send me the log
files.
This was a clean install, boot from DVD, not an upgrade correct?
Thanks,
Darrell Gorter[MSFT]
