It turns out that the DVD ROM that I was using just wasn't being recognized by the smartboot manager. It was an AOpen DVD ROM. I put in an LG DVD writer and it worked like a charm. Thanks for this method. It is much better than any other method out there. BTW. microsoft should be shot for screwing this one up. It seems that most people who have MSI or AsRock motherboards that are more than 4 years old are running into this problem. I have an AsRock that is 2 years old and Windows 7 installed without a hitch. My wife's MSI had the Code 5 error problem. A friend of mine had the same problem as well with an MSI board. Thanks again and good luck to all those trying to overcome this glitch. I figured it out.. It turns out that the DVD ROM that I was using just wasn’t being recognized by the smartboot manager.

Worked a treat. Would still like to know what causes it though! I guess it wouldn't happen if trying to install on a new empty drive (because this m/c was ok last time, when it was such a drive).
