i m new to this forum.....just installed vlite latest version in order to install vista. i purchased vista home premium from microsoft online and downloaded it but whenever i run SETUP and it starts copying files i get an error code 0x80070241. I thought to sort out this problem using vlite so i installed it and after loading and choosing the home premium thing i get an error saying MOUNTING IMAGE ERROR.

DID U RESTART AFTER INSTALLING THE FILTER MANAGER.

Anyway try restarting your cmputer now and see if that helps, if that does not solve the issue please report

-Code 2147023504

Furthermore i have only START button enabled on the left pane rest are disabled.please help!!!!!!!

Image corrupt?.Please re-download Vista from MS.

What I see is some sort of file corruption, perhaps? Appears to be a problem with the Vista source you downloaded (especially since you get the 80070241 during install/setup) - here's the errors from winerror.h:

# 1 matches found for "-2147023504"
  ERROR_FILE_CORRUPT											 winerror.h
# The file or directory is corrupted and unreadable.

# 1 matches found for "0x80070241"
  ERROR_INVALID_IMAGE_HASH									   winerror.h
# The hash for the image cannot be found in the system
# catalogs.  The image is likely corrupt or the victim of
# tampering.

thnx for repying..........i was going through other forums and i found many people complaining abt the same problem either installing from DVD or from downloaded file...........so all of them have bad download or dvd?
