Installation Problem

Postby FrostLordX » Sun Nov 14, 2010 2:43 am

I can't install Ultimate Edition 2.7 32-bit. I can go through the 7 steps, then it goes to the installing process, then at 22% it stops and comes with this error:
The installer encountered an error copying files to the hard disk:

[Errno 5] Input/output error

This is often due to a faulty CD/DVD disk or drive, or a faulty hard disk. It may help to clean the CD/DVD, to burn the CD/DVD at a lower speed, to clean the CD/DVD drive lens (cleaning kits are often available from electronics suppliers), to check whether the hard disk is old and in need of replacement, or to move the system to a cooler environment.

And yes, I burnt it at the lowest speed possible (1x), I checked my CD/DVD drive, and the ISO, I checked my hard disk.
:( HELP! :(
