Are you upgrading from windows updates or the windows store? If it won't work in the updates - try the windows store.....

# sounds about right make sure windows is upto date before trying to install windows 8.1 you have todo several restarts, in one case i had to download the updates from the ms website, even had to install a few manually, a few at a time, as it couldn't Manage all the updates at once, it can take a few restarts before you can install Win 8.1 form store.

nah you have to make sure windows update is on and the latest update is installed
i had the same problem for a bit but now i run 8.1 perfectly i just had to get the latest windows update then go to the stora and press update to 8.1

# yeah basically make sure windows is upto date! And you need a microsoft account i guess and make sure your connected to the internet.

Ok are you connected to the internet, can you browse web pages? If yes

Step 2..goto control panel, run windows update and check for updates,
Don't forget you may have to be logged on as administrator to do this, if you are not go back and log on as admin,

Once you have done this if you have updates that are ready to install, try and install only the first in the long list of updates by deselecting all the others,

Did this work

Other steps include making sure you have linked you new computer to your live ID, and registered windows 8.1.

Have you installed any new hardware recently, it might be worth informing you that you can manually download the updates from the windows web site and install them from disk

Oh and make sure your wireless isn't turned off if its a laptop, lol
