Problem trying Win 7 clean install on VGN a517s

Hello Guys,

ok it is not advised but I have several PCs and I wanted to give a try to Win 7 on my VGN A-517s Vaio. I decided to go for a complete clean install and therefore I did format my system partition to let setup proceed. No worry I had backuped all vital data but....

Win7 x86 (32 bits) is doing the setup properly booting from the win 7 ultimate DVD, but then it reaches at a given stage a progress status on expanding files, and passed something like 10% it just issues an error message Ex..... stating that it won't be able to go any further and that's it.

I wondered if that might ring someone's bell ? I tried many things but I am really stuck there...

Any help warmly welcomed

justto be crystal clear what I get is a 0x80070570 error code which seems to be famous on some forums, I tried different versions from the OEM distribution, burnt at different speeds, no way to get through...

Hint ?
