When installing Windows Server 2008 RC0 Datacenter on a VMware virtual computer I get the same error.
I have VMware Workstation ACE Edition version 6.0.1 build-55017, set up to run a virtual machine with Guest Operating system; Windows Server 2008 x64 Edition (experimental). Not sure exactly what motherboard and CPU, but it is for sure an AMD 64 bit processor.
This is the iso file I've been trying to install:
6001.16659.070916-1443_amd64fre_Server_en-us-KR1SXFRE_EN_DVD.iso
When trying to install Windows Server 2008 RC0 Enterprise on the same virtual machine
(ISO file: 6001.16659.070916-1443_amd64fre_Server_en-us-KR1SXFRE_EN_DVD.iso)
I get the following message (on a black screen with grey font)
Windows failed to start. A recent hardware or software change might be the cause. To fix the problem:
1. Insert your Windows installation disc and restart your computer.
2. Choose your language settings, and then click "Next."
3. Click "Repair your computer."
If you do not have the disc, contact your system administrator or computer manufacturere for assistance.
File: \windows\system32\drivers\megasr.sys
Status: 0xc0000098
Info: Windows failed to load because a critical system driver
is missing, or corrupt.

Monday, October 08, 2007 6:29 PMHave the same problem, Tried installing in VMware server 1.0.1 got the same message "Error 80070570 not able to fone D:\sourcesinstall.win.
Previosuly had another issue with B3 that it won't find the drivers for the CD\DVD drive. Did some googling and the drivers from this link did the job.

Tried the same drivers with RC0....No Luck!
Something fishy with RC0

I've now installed the x86 version of Datacenter with luck. Haven't tried the x86 version of Enterprise but i suspect that it also will work. The 64bit emulation in VMware's is experimental so I guess the problem is with VMware and not with Windows ?

I am having this same issue installing 2008 RC0 Enterprise as the primary OS on a machine.
Any idea why this would be happenning?

Sunday, October 21, 2007 7:40 PMHi Guys,
i'm getting the same error after providing the key because this file is missing. I've used the following image file for installation directly on my hardware (no virtualization):
6001.16659.070916-1443_amd64fre_Server_de-de-KR1SXFRE_DE_DVD.iso
Could someone help?
Best regards,

Is this from a DVD from the action pack? Please try using the ISO from the Microsoft website.

I checked my iso image that I downloaded, and it's
1.31 GB (1,408,304,837 bytes)
the web site says it's suppose to be 2649.0 MB
so I'll download it again.. and see what happens -

Hello everybody,
I have the same error on file install.wim (i have no product key entered) ;
The file size is 1688 MB.
I downloaded 2 times (because of this error) Windows 2008 RC1 Standard Edition (ISO file) for x86 and tried to install it on a new computer directly from dvd drive.. impossible.
I next downloaded Windows2008 RC1 Enterprise Edition (thinking it would be different) and the same error appears..
I don't know what to do, i thank it was possible directly installing this platform on a "virgin server" but reading informations here and there, i am not alone: we are some persons with this error..
It seems to be the size of file ? perhaps..
Others persons with RC0 meet the problem too..
Directly putting the dvd on a windows 2000 server (patched) and automatic execution, windows tells that autorun.dll is not valid because of a file named "spwizeng.dll" that was not loaded..
Did anyone found a solution ?
Someone wrote about rewriting the file install.wim without some options ..? not easy faor all of us. i haven't got vista and the utilities that permit doing that.
Thanks for your answers.

Thursday, March 20, 2008 6:38 PMHi!!
Maybe this is not the correct topic to discuss this, but I'm receiving the same error (80070570) when my Windows Update tries to download and install a Windows Vista Update...
Another thing, not relationated with this, everytime I want to update my computer I need to go to Control Panel - Administrative Tools - Services and then search for windows update and iniciate the service... The same happens with Windows Defender, but with this one, even after I turn the service on, when I open Windows Defender it closes immediately...
Oh, and I use CCleaner in computer, but it also opens and closes immediately!
Afffff... I dunno what to do...
My computer is a mess!! Format and re-install the OS it's a good idea ?!

The 80070570 is a Win32 HRESULT (8=bad ***, 007=win32, 570=couldn't open file) that basically means 'couldn't open file'. Seeing this error during windows update would have a different root cause than one seen when trying to open a file from a CD rom.
That said I got past this error during installation after I found another VM on the same box was also hitting the DVD drive that I was installing from. I released the DVD drive from all VMs then released and reattached it to the VM I was installing in. Tried again and everything was fine.

Thursday, March 05, 2009 7:10 AMwell what you have to do is go to vmware web access, then summary tab, then hardware section, then edit the cd/dvd option, change the selected option from 'ATAPI emulation' to 'Access the drive directly'
