Error code is [0xC1]" 2- Tried setup by booting the DVD, the setup starts, i add the serial number provided by microsoft , then i get theat image file is corrupt. 3- Checked the CRC of the ISO file everything is fine. 4- tried to install using virtual DVD, same problem. P.S: the vista beta ISO download size = 600,122KB when extracted = 3.12 GB Thank you yeah i am having the same errors as nads ive tried in DAEMON TOOLS and Nero ImageDrive.

Hope this Vista is good as microsoft pretends :) I too have the same problem, and i've tried everything mentioned, the DVD doesn't seem to be bootable for some reason, and when i try to run it from within XP Pro, i get the same error. > Hello, > [quoted text clipped - 20 lines] > > I too have the same problem, and i've tried everything mentioned, the DVD doesn't seem to be bootable for some reason, and when i try to run it from within XP Pro, i get the same error. > Hello, > [quoted text clipped - 20 lines] > > I too have same problem.

Disappointing that I spent an hour downloading 3 gigs of data and am getting the autorun.dll error. It's intesting though, that I use it on a laptop with XP Home and get the SPWIZENG.DLL and autorun.dll error but if I do it with a computer with XP Pro I only get the autorun.dll error. I burned the DVD with Nero and am using generic DVD's and generic DVD burner. Maybe it has to do with Nero? Anyone else have any ideas? > I too have same problem.

Alot of the time if you check that the file is corrupt or anything most programs will say its fine BUT redownloading the file will most likely help. Most times it's an incomplete file or plai corrupt ISO. SignatureECW, ECW. > Same problem here... any word on a fix for this?

I am not going back out to the store and getting more until i get a perfect fix for this. I just came to the thought that has anyone got vista to work on their pc?!?!?! Because it does'nt look like it on these forms. I tryed judas idea and burned it at 1x the lowest i can go but nothing... Still get the same 2 errors. Please help!!!

I've tried it on two different computers and gotten different responses... Since one is a laptop and the other is a desktop I can't just switch the CD Roms or else I would. It's interesting. On my desktop if I push the CD rom in it gives me the error... but if I press the button to close it, it pulls up the install screen... might just be a coincidence. The laptop gives me both errors, but will pull up an install screen if I boot from the CD. However, it doesn't let me get passed entering the key as it says the Image file isn't valid.... this again leads me to believe that it's the CD player. Good luck. Please post what you find. > Well i'm getting the same problem in a mininute im going to blow my head > off!!! Ive tryed to redownload the file 10 times and wasted all of my cds.

It gave me this thing on 3 different computer , 2 desktops and 1 laptop. The first error i had before redownload was some image error after entering the serial number. But still don't have any solution yet. I've had the same problem but with the Vista Business edition I got from MSDN. Ive burnt over 10 dvd's now. I get the same messages as described above. I've downloaded the .iso twice now. I've used Alcohol 120%, ImgBurn, and on Ubuntu I used GnomeBaker and K3B. I get the same messages trying to install on my laptop and my PC. I even swapped out my DVD reader on my PC with a spare. Its driving me crazy! Did anyone resolve this?

It's not really clear from your inquiry if you are trying to use "SPWIZENG.DLL" as the main file for burning a DVD. A file that has the dll extension is not an image file but a system file. DLL is an acronym for "Dynamic Link Library". So if you are trying to burn a DVD (or whatever) with just this file alone, it won't work regardless of the software you use. You can use your software to burn a *copy* of this file to DVD (or whatever) for backup purposes or if you wanted to transfer the file to another computer for examples. To burn a DVD from an image file, you need a valid image file; a common extension for image files is "iso". For example: VistaBusiness.iso Recheck your sources to make sure you are downloading the correct file. :-) Hmm, no I had the same problems as described above. I dont think just burning that file to a dvd would give me those error messages. SignatureCivixsi http://forums.techarena.in > Hmm, no I had the same problems as described above. I have absolutely no idea what you mean by this! > I dont think just > burning that file to a dvd would give me those error messages. Well of course you wouldn't get those error messages by just burning that particular file to a disk.....but if you had taken the time to comprehend what I wrote, you **would** get those error messages if you were trying to burn an image file and using the wrong file! Last chance here........are you using a valid a valid image file or not? What is the exact name of the image file you downloaded? Image files do not have dll extensions! Respond in a clear and concise way and I will try to help you....if you can't do that and focus long enough to appreciate plus understand the help that someone is trying to give you then go solve the problem on your own and quit wasting my and others time. |
