Dec 13, 2012 - I used this and a flash drive for the drivers for Boot Camp (Drivers also didn't. In the directory except for WindowsSupport>Drivers>Intel>WIN7). As for the drivers, make the clean install of Windows and then install them. Jul 9, 2015 - The install starts. But at 6% of 'Expanding Files', I get an error: Windows cannot install required files error 0x80070570. The file may be corrupt.

Windows cannot install required files. The file may be corrupt or missing.

Make sure all files required for installation are available, and restart the installation. Error code: 0x80070570 The particulars of my setup are as follows: • Late 2008/Early 2009 Unibody Macbook Pro • 2.66Ghz C2D • 8GB RAM (OWC) • 240 GB SSD replacing the original HDD (OWC, running 10.7.3) • 1 TB HDD replacing the optical drive (WD, partitioned 150GB for Windows install) • External USB enclosure w/ Apple Superdrive (OWC) • Install source is a System Builder DVD of Windows 7 Pro SP1 x64.

Hopefully I posted this in the right forum. Thanks so much for taking the time to help! Hello, I don't know if this will help at all but I recently tried to install Win7 64 OEM on my Mac Pro and ran into similar problems because of multiple hard drives.

After I pulled all the internal drives and shut down anything external, it actually would go through the entire install process properly. Unfortunately all I get now is a single underscore white cursor at the top left of the screen when I try to boot but at least Win7 installed. Perhaps I'll have to pull the SAS card for the external LTO-4 drive next. Maybe disconnect one of your drives that you aren't installing on and give it a whirl.

Hi guys, I'm a bit stuck here! I'm selling my laptop (an Inspiron 1564) but basically decided to reinstall Windows.

I tried using a Home Premium ISO (and would then put the OEM key in) but obviously that wouldn't activate. So back to the drawing board. And got myself a Professional license. With that purchase I also could then download the official ISO from the store. So I did and burnt that to disk. Tried it in the laptop - no luck for the past 15 minutes it has been stuck on expanding files, at 0%? So I thought maybe it might be the ISO, so I just grab one from a torrent (and would then use the key I have), just to see if it would even install.

Again though. Stuck on expanding files. So this is two different discs here?! Any ideas how to solve this (before I throw the laptop off the balcony!!!) Cheers!:D.

I don't keep the install of the OS when I buy it from MAJOR players, Dell, IBM, HP, etc. Why would I keep an os install from billy bob stranger? For all I know its got 23 different key loggers, etc. First thing I do with any machine no matter where it came from is WIPE it an put on the OS of my choice -- now since your selling a OEM, machine he has the OEM sticker on it for the OS it was originally sold with - let the buyer put the OS back on from the OEM if he so chooses, which is why you could just give them the recovery media that it either came with or you created after you turned it on, etc. Unless you removed the recovery partition on purpose or changed the disk that it came with the recovery image would still be there even if you wiped the system install and put on your own OS. 'I'm selling my laptop' Then why do you care if there is anything on it - just wipe the drive and sell it with NO OS - let the buyer put whatever OS they want on it. Or put it back to factory settings with the restore media you created when you bought it - you did create the recovery media did you not?

Ah, because I'm just selling it to a shop, not someone on eBay (after fees, delivery it really isn't worth it I've worked out). Therefore it has to come with some sort of operating system. Now the problem is. The recovery partition. It is VERY strange and I can't figure it out (hence me just chucking a spare Win 7 Professional on it). It is there but because I basically attempted to 'reinstall' from my own Win 7 ISO rather than just restore (as I didn't think the restore partition even existed!) it seems to have knocked out using 'Ctrl + F11' to get into the 'PC Restore' software.
