Windows 7 install was at 29% for ages on extracting files so i moved the laptop beside me so i could keep an eye on it. As soon as i set it down i got an error message saying files were corrupt? (I was fairly gentle)

Any ideas? (havent tried again yet as my macbook is only a day old and i want to mess around with it)

Ok it has nothing to do with the way i set it down I tried it again and it got stuck on 29% again

I get the error message:
Windows cannot install required files. The file may be corrupt or
missing.
Make sure all files required for installation are available, and restart
the
installation. Error code 0x80070017

So im downloading win 7 again. What burning software should i use for the disc? Any other advice?
