Re: Windows Market Place Vista Home Premium

I did NOT say that.
READ the OP's post, and my replies.
He does NOT have a ISO file to burn to DVD.

He downloaded the upgrades Files from microsoft, not an ISO file.!

Why do you say he can not boot and do a clean install from a Vista 64 bit
upgrade DVD?
It sounds like his error was in trying to run the exe file from his 32 bit
OS instead of booting it.

You have an XP 32bit System.
You bought a Vista 64bit upgrade disk.

When you go from 32bit to 64bit, or vica versa, it has to be a Clean
Install.

In other words, save your Data, boot from Vista disk(which you do not
have), delete XP partiton, make a new partition, format, install.

And you have not downloaded an ISO file from MS, so you can not make a
bootable disk from it.

Hi,

I've just bought a copy of Vista Home Premium 64bit upgrade from the
Microsoft Windows Marketplace and I can't get the thing to even make me
an image to install it. When I run the main 'exe' file it gives me an
error once it starts to unpack all the files 'Cannot extract Windows
Vista Setup' with a web link to referencing 'WMHFUSEN/102322'. Does
anyone know what this error code means? The link only leads back to the
Windows Marketplace and there is no useful information there...

I've re-downloaded all three files that make up the installation disc
both through the little download manager thing the marketplace uses and
through IE itself and there doesn't seem to be any corruption. Also have
plenty of free space on the hard drives.

Currently running on XP Pro 32bit and the following main hardware:

E6850
EVGA 680i
4GB RAM

Help!
