Where did you get the ISO? If it's a torrented download it may be corrupted in some way.

I got this error too when I used a custom made ISO. It was fixed by using a genuine Microsoft ISO for Windows 7.

If it's a genuine ISO from Microsoft:

- Check and make sure the ISO isn't mounted when you try this;
