Missing Windows Servicing Packages files & update problems
Boggin:
When it reverted from the previous failed install using the first disks, it would have restored your previous install from Windows.old so I don't think any corruption would have occurred from that, but I'm not sure if you should have Windows.old after a failed install.
The error 80070005 generally relates to permissions and access denied but a Google for 80070017 comes up with either a bad CD/DVD or DVD drive.
This results in some of the files not getting to the target HDD either because of corruption of the DVD or the disk player isn't reading the DVD correctly.
Before sending you the disks I booted up with each and performed an offboot sfc /scannow which executed without any errors, so I think the disks would be okay and I specifically put the HP one in between the universal ones to give it added protection - but you could try the reinstall with either of the other disks which I ran the eicfg removal on.
CD/DVD drives can go at any time and to eliminate yours as the cause, if you have a 4GB Flash drive you can create a bootable USB from the DVDs by following the DiskPart steps in http://www.wikihow.com/Make-a-USB-Bootable

Hmm, well the DVD drive seems to be ok, and the disk looked fine, but I tried it again after a reboot and it got stuck "Copying Windows files" at 65% and eventually gave the 80070017 error again, so I presume it's stuck at the same place again and can't copy something from the DVD.. :sad: oh well.
Not one to give up, I tried one of the 2nd Universal disks, and this one differs from the 1st (pair) in that it asked me for the version of Win 7 to install, which the first one didn't, so I chose Home Premium and it seems to be running ok :smiley: well the first one did as well, right up to the last stage, so who knows! Anyway it's on the second stage right now, gathering files, settings & programs, and hasn't stuck yet, so fingers crossed (Again!)... :undecided: :sleep:
Boggin:
The reason the universal disk asks which version is because it has all versions on there and doesn't nail it to the original Pro version that it once was after the eicfg file removal.
The HP disk would be the same if the ISO had the eicfg file removed, but I can't understand why that isn't working.
If you get a chance, try using that DiskPart tutorial to create a bootable USB from the HP disk to see if a repair install will work from that after creating a full system image.
Tone111:
Ah I see. not sure why the HP disk wasn't working but the second Universal disk has failed as well :sad: different error to the first Universal one though (see attached) - no specific error, just a generic "Can't continue, reboot, get updates" message.
Don't have a small USB stick I can use to create a boot ISO from just at the moment, could maybe get one next week some time... Sigh, any more ideas other than just rebooting and trying again (although that's always worth a try) :blank:?
Boggin:
So why not do what the message says ?
It may need some of the updates as pre-requisites.
The disks can't have been bad burns as I'd just had a new DVD drive fitted to the laptop that I burned the newer disks on, and at least that error message seems like progress.
