Can someone please provide me with a working torrent file/direct link to this MSDN untouched ISO? en_windows_vista_with_sp2_x86_dvd_342266.iso
I just have x64. Sorry. I downloaded 1 week ago though and worked perfect. Just create folder on desktop and put in all parts ---> highlight parts --> right click and using 7z choose extract here and boom you have your ISO
Well, the problem here is quite funny... I'll tell you though... My brother downloaded this same ISO about an year ago. The idiot then burned the ISO to a disc and deleted the ISO download from the hard drive... I have that disc with me. But I doubt that he might have deleted ei.cfg or maybe any tiny file from the ISO before burning. Now when I create an ISO from that disc, the total size is 3243337728 bytes... There is a very very little difference of about 75776 bytes from the official MSDN size of the ISO which is 3243413504 bytes... I therefore doubt that he might have deleted something. That is why I am asking the total number of objects in the \sources folder... If someone can please help me verify if its 152! I really don't want to download this ISO again!
This means my brother burnt the ISO without making any changes to it! Thank you for the help... Thank you very much!
When Windows reads the DVD, I right click the DVD and select 'Make an image file' using PowerISO. Then its gives me options (.iso, .bin etc). My DVD image hash doesn't match the official hash. @sebus said that the /sources folder had altogether 152 objects inside it. My DVD also has the exact same 152. I previously had doubt over my brother deleting any file from the /sources folder before buring the image; but since it has 152, so that doubt is gone. What i don't get it is if my brother did not delete any file from the ISO, then why the dvd size and the new iso which i made from the dvd, is showing the size difference of very very very minute little bytes from the official ISO size.
PowerISO does NOT make true image (it pads, hence the hash is different)# The only ones that make the right image are Nero & MagicISO sebus
The link works the version is there. The hash is there . There is no problem here as far as I can tell.
Can't believe my post got deleted somehow! 3 days back I posted to @sebus and others who were helping me that I downloaded the untouched ISO from a torrent, and successfully verified the hash. This thread can be closed now!
