Hey, quick question:

So when Windows restarts (before trying the Install), should my Firewall and Anti-Virus startup? Or, should those things NOT have started up? My peer blocker and other things didn't startup, but those did, and i just want to be sure that's OK.

If it IS OK, I tried the install again and I got the same error message:
"Make sure all files required for installation are available, and restart the installation. Error code: 0x80070241"

I think you are suppose to disable those so the installation will run.

I did.

But when I restarted they came back on. OK...I'll try it again.

Hey, Rshaff!

Sorry it's taken me so long to get back to you (I was on deadline).

Well, I tried it again, and the installation didn't work. On the other hand, I've not had a BSOD crash in quite sometime, so maybe something DID get repaired amidst my efforts.

I'm going to leave it at this point. In part b/c I'm exhausted by all this.

So feel free to close this thread out. Should Windows start crashing again, I'll post it in a new thread and also alert you in case something we went through here can inform that issue.

Thanks for all of your patience and help.
