Hello there,
I recently tried installing Windows Vista on an old Acer Aspire 7730G from 2008 that already ran Windows 7 as its main OS.
I created a 70GB partition and made a 7 GB USB bootable using RUFUS.
While Windows Vista setup i encountered that mysterious error:
Windows Vista error code: 0x80070070
Windows cannot copy files required for the installation. Make sure all files required for installation are available and restart the installation.
I wasn't able to find out much about it but apparently, it indicates insufficient storage.
I then tried everything to resolve that error:
Extending the partition,
Different software to make my USB bootable (RUFUS and WinToFlash)
Different ISO's
Different USB ports
Ran CHKDSK
Defragmented all drives
,but the error still persisted. (And yes, i made sure that the USB was FAT32 formatted and no, I'm 100% sure that the USB isn't broken because i installed Windows 7 with it just a week prior.)
I hope someone here can help me resolve this issue.
Thanks in advance
Specs:
CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo T9400 2.53 Ghz
GPU:Nvidia GeForce GT 9600m 512mb
RAM: 4 GB DDR2
STORAGE: 2x Hitachi 320GB HDD
PS: that same error occurred during Windows XP setup just without the error code. It also stated that the setup CD (installation files) cannot be found.
