Installing Windows 8 failed –the error code: HAL Initialization Failed-Collection of common programming errors

Hi , my first try to install Windows 8 32bit failed and the error code is HAL Initialization Failed

Repro steps:

1.       Host machine is Windows 7 Enterprise 32 bit

2.       Download .iso (32bit) from Microsoft.com successfully

3.       Install Windows Virtual PC successfully and restart PC

4.       Create a new VM ( memory is 2049MB) via Windows Virtual PC  and point to .iso file to load the file

5.       The error code appears – HAL Initialization Failed

Any ways to make it work??

Thanks,

Ray
