windows 7 oem. new parts in old box, mb, hdd, power supply, ram, running windows dvd boot from dvd. install halts on expanding files at 1-2% and requests the dvd that is already in the drive and will not recognize it. further twisting gets me 0003 and 0022 error codes which suggest upgrade errors. I have re-ordered boot priority in the bios from blank hdd to dvd with not much effect. any help?
 
Hello and welcome to the forum.
Try removing all but a single stick (module) of memory make sure it is in the proper slot according to your motherboard manual.
And or try another / different DVD drive if yours is an older model in the old box then it might be having laser issues.
Keep us posted.

Thanks for the reply. I wondered about the older dvd drive. I will replace that first and give it a shot...
 
Thanks Trouble,
Replaced older IDE dvd read/writer with new ($42) SATA dvd read/writer. Not only worked like a charm, but ran through setup about 8 times faster.
