trying to install ms win8 x64 downloaded from technet (NOT THE RELEASE PREVIEW). I can mount image, get to the setup screen, "(1) collecting information" then this error:

"no device drivers were found. make sure the installation media contains the correct drivers, then click ok"

installing on macbook pro retina, latest mac os. no idea what drivers win8 wants/needs. tried express and express off with same result.

any thoughts appreciated
 
How do verify?

MMika,

How do you verify the downloaded ISO image, and how do I make the installation program continue if it continues to say that the drivers can't be found? I'm having the same issue, I think.
Parallels Wizard is asking me to select the driver to install, and then gives me a limited "Browse for Folder" option, where if I knew where to look, I could find it, but I can't just search for a file (assuming I'd know what to search for anyway). What am I looking for?
