I get this error message "Windows couldn't collect information for (OS Image) since the specified image file (Install.win) does not exist." When I am installing Windows 7. I am using Windows XP and am doing clean install but still get the same error message . What could be the problem and how can it be solved .

I also got this error ..their might be two reasons .u deleted the ei.cfg or u saved the new iso (save as)..I got this error once then I tried it untouched without editing or deleting and then it worked .. I did that both (deleted & saved as ) so I got that error but next time burned as it is (untouched ) and it ran succesfully ... but many deleted ei.cfg so I guess the problem must be of how do u save ur iso ..

their is differece in size too ..one u must have edited must be around 2.34 gb (on Disk) but org untouched iso shows 3 Gb Both (on Disk).

Problem is with your Win7 disk. Try burning DVD AT 4x speed or get a new disk.
