Hi, I'm new to the site. I'm installing a new hard drive. It's a Western Digital Scorpio Blue WD5000BEVT 500GB hard drive and I plan on using the Windows Vista Ultimate 32-bit full Version OS. The only problem is I can't get the hard drive to work. This message appears when I type in the product key: Windows cannot open the required D:\Sources\Install.wim. The file may be corrupt or missing. Make sure all files required for installation are available, and restart the installation. Error code: 0x80070570. Can anyone please tell me what this means and give me some tips on how to fix the problem?

Are you using a Actual Copy of Windows 7 or a burnt copy? If you burnt the copy you might want to re-burn it a 1x or 2x. Also after the burn you might want to run a CRC check utility to prevent this from happening

My first thoughts would be this is a copy that is in some way corrupt. If this, then reburn at the slowest speed.

 If it is not, then you may want to install a different optical drive for the install.
