    Default My download of Beta 7 is missing "install.wim".

    Hi,
    Well, with high hopes I downloaded, burned, and booted 7. The install has stopped because of the lack of something called "install.wim".
    Have any of you fought this battle and won?
    If you have would you please share what you did?
    Thanks!

    Never saw this before. I have 7 on the 2133, my gamer (64bit) and my server (64bit).

    At what stage do you get this problem?

    Have done some research that tells me to download again with Opera. Claims some download managers cut the file short. I have also burned the cd at a slower rate with no joy.

    When you download with IE7 it gives you an activex control to run which should guarantee you a complete download. Which program are you using to burn the .iso?
