(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); I have downloaded Windows 8 Build 7995 (in the premium section) and I have mounted it to Drive J: or whatever using PowerISO / MagicISO, I go to install it, and it asks which type I want to install, Upgrade or Custom. I select Upgrade, and I'm prompted, after a couple seconds, with this message

The following issues are preventing Windows from upgrading. Cancel the upgrade, complete each task, and then restart the upgrade to continue.


    There is not enough free space to store temporary Windows installation files. Try using Disk Cleanup, uninstall old programs, or move files to an external location such as a CD, DVD, or external hard drive.


I am positive there is enough space, as I've been told it only takes up around 16GB, and I have 90GB free. What could be the problem?

Whoever helps resolve this, I'll give you 50k vBux :carling:

You can't install it onto another running OS :fpalm: you need to burn it to a disk and make another partition
