I get an error message saying that the 0X80071A90 file is used by another program when trying to make a backup using windows backup installation, anyone got any idea how to get around this please.
Hello Chris,
Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community.
I understand that you have any questions, by making a backup of Windows. In the meantime, please try to follow the following suggestions to solve the problem.
You can try putting your computer clean boot state, and then try to perform a backup and see if that helps. Follow the link below to get you computer in a clean boot state, because your system in a clean boot state allows to identify whether third-party applications or startup items are causing the problem. You must follow the steps in the article mentioned below to perform a clean boot. See the link to perform the clean boot.
How to perform a clean boot in Windows
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135
Note: See "How do I reset the computer to start normally after a boot minimum troubleshooting" to prepare the computer to start as usual after a repair .
If that doesn't help then try to find the bad sectors on the hard disk and then perform a backup, see if that helps. Run the disk check to find and fix errors on the disc.
(a) click Start, type cmd, right click on cmd and click run as administrator
(b) at the prompt, type chkdsk /f /r and press to enter.
(c) try to save and check the result.
Visit this link for more information on "check a drive for errors":
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/check-a-drive-for-errors
Important: Running chkdsk on the drive if bad sectors are found on the disk hard when chkdsk attempts to repair this area if all available on which data can be lost.
I hope this helps. Otherwise, feel free to write us again and we will be happy to help you.
Thank you

However, the requirements for the media upgrade is that you have an operating system already eligible such as Windows XP or Vista installed to use it. Since the Windows 7 end user license agreement.
