vista can't find all required files during installation

when i try to install vista i get this error message: Windows cannot install required files. Make sure all files required for installation are available, and restart the installation. Error code: 0x800706F8. Any help would be appreciated.

Idea Re: vista can't find all required files during installation

Sounds like you need to add the drivers, more so if your drives rely on raid\Sata, it's a bit like hitting F6 in xp, but in vista you click on the add drivers and direct it to the drivers, once you have them loaded it should proceed past that point, just re-run the driver installs after your installed to catch any missing components.

Re: vista can't find all required files during installation
