PS- Im upgrading from XP Home SP2
Trying to install Windows Vista Premium 32-bit
Ok so I do the upgrade compatibility check
All good except for a few programs that will possibly not be compatible (message says that this should not hinder installation).
I proceed...
Lookin good, I go through the copying files phase 100%
Opps, when we get to "Gathering Files" I cant go any further than 0%
A message says: Windows has encountered an error, setup cannot proceed
Well thanks for the useful information on that error. It really provided insight into my problem </sarcasm>
Ok heres what the error log says:

Please help in any way you can.
