installation error windows 8.1

had same message when used a leaked version. Wrong hash. Other version was ok after verified hash data and installed smoothly

 

please wait until other members report about same problem and its solution. I only faced it once and as said, using other iso, all went fine

Update:  Burning the ISO file to a regular DVD+R seemed to do the trick.  Haven't gone far enough to see if I still get the media driver issue installing from within the RP.  Now I will try to re-burn to the DVDRW and see what happens.

 

I remember having a similar issue with one of the early betas of 8 vanilla. I had to install using the following trick:

1. Install Windows 7.
2. Insert the Win8 DVD when the temporary win7 is running.
3. Run setup from inside the OS and do a clean install that way.

Note: You can't change the partition layout that way, and you'll have to remove the windows.old (or whatever) directory manually after the install completes.

It does complete, however, so it's a workaround you may try.

 

today, ia hve the same issue on old dvd-rw disk, though windows 7 and other on this disk works.

If I use this disk with windows 8.1 update as iso image, then ig goes without that media error, but i do not use iso, i use easyboot as multi boot with windows 98+ windows 8.1 update, and so I have this situation, as I understand, it want newer driver for dvd driver to be read out the further files, doesn`t it? My computer is 2008 dual core, bios of 2009, probably this error won`t be done on computer of earlier years like say 2012 and forward.

 

well, all depends on your computer model year date, every from 2009 must accept this install+ dvd recorder must be of 2008 at least, and not every company is accepted. I have lg yes, and for samsung of the same year, no! good luck.
