Information on this specific error is thin on the ground so all I can suggest is the obvious really -- just make sure the installation target is to the correct drive before proceeding.

Have You Cleane Out All "Temp" Folders?
Apr 25, 2011 6:11AM PDT

Sometimes, that error will be thrown when the various Temp folders are full of files.. Check the locations below and clean out all files from within these folders:

C:\Windows\Temp
C:\Users\Yourusername\AppData\Local\Temp

Hope this helps.
