Vista - Upgrade Install Error: Cannot copy setup files to c:\ drive

I get an error "Cannot copy setup files to c:\ drive" when I attempt to do an
upgrade install from XP Pro SP2.

My system config is as follows:

Athlon XP 2400+
MSI NForce 2 MB
80 GB System Drive
2X 120GB Data Drives
ATI Radeon 9700 All In Wonder AGP 128MB
Integrated Nvidia SoundStorm Audio
Integrated Nvidia NIC
1GB (2X512MB) Dual Channel DDR333

It isn't my installation CD, as Vista installs just fine from it on other PCs.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Check the drive Properties (security) tab to make sure there is no write
permissions on the drive. Does this occur everytime you launch setup?
