Error installing windows 10 with bootcamp

Hi there, thanks in advance for the help, i really need it as soon as possible.

I recently acquired a new MacBook Pro 15’’ (Late 2016), with the following specifications:

For my Mac, i need to install windows 10 in order to run a specific project for Kinect v2. I tried to install windows 10 via bootcamp today, with all the software updated (macOS Sierra 10.12.1 and BootCamp 6.1). At the beginning all the process was ok, without any problems, but then, when the computer restarts with the windows10 startup, it returns a blue screen like following:

In addition, when I init MacOS again, I can see the BOOTCAMP partition at the desktop and in finder, but this disc is completely empty.

What can i do to install windows 10 correctly?

MacBook Pro (15-inch, Late 2016), macOS Sierra (10.12.1), Boot Camp 6.1.0

Just an update on this that caught me today.. As it says on Microsoft's website you can not install the Win10 Creators release directly with bootcamp. Get the Anniversary release and then upgrade via Windows Update.

Do you have a pending OS X 10.12.2 update?

The error message indicates a corrupted Windows installation. Can you remove the current installation and try to re-install? Where did the source W10 ISO come from?

I already tried to re-install it 2 times but the same thing happens. The ISO comes from an official web page of my university, where i can download official microsoft products for free thanks to an agreement (msdnaa uc3m).

Thanks a lot for the attention.

Are you downloading the ISO from https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/home ? If yes, please post the filename and it's MD5sum.

Are you connected to any Network during the Windows installation? If yes, please disconnect and check if you get a working installation.

Do you get a BSoD before or after the Bootcamp drivers are installed?

The ISO is downloaded from the next web: https://e5.onthehub.com/WebStore/ProductsByMajorVersionList.aspx?cmi_cs=1&cmi_mn uMain=bdba23cf-e05e-e011-971f-0030487d8897&ws=8738733a-6d9b-e011-969d-0030487d88 97&vsro=8 (official web of my university).

The name of the file is "es_windows_10_multiple_editions_x64_dvd_6847131.iso".

I couldn't init the installation, the error message comes when i try to init the computer with the BOOTCAMP partition.

As a test, can you use the Microsoft link and download a single 64-bit ISO and try to install W10 from the retail ISO? Disconnect from all networks physical and install, create a Windows System Restore point before you reconnect to a network.

Windows Education versions are problematic when installed via Bootcamp.
