    Alright so i have been trying to upgrade from home premium 64bit vista to W7 with my upgrade disc and i am out of idea. Every time i try to run the upgrade i get an error saying

    "Windows cannot copy files required for installation. The files may be corrupt or missing. Make sure all files required for installation are available and restart the installation. Error code: 0x80070017"

    I get this message at the copying files stage ranging from 13 to 15% completion.

    Source of the Windows 7 Upgrade disc? Is this from MS or a download? If a download, re-burn the ISO at a slower speed.
