I have recently built a new computer, and Windows 8.1 64bit won't install.  I'm trying to get it onto a samsung 850 evo.  I've tried disk, i've tried usb, but every time I get the error code: 0x80070017.  It says that files may be missing, or that the drive isn't working.  The windows file isn't disc straight from Microsoft.  It's a version from my friend, and he gets OS's from his company.  This is extremely agrivating.  I NEED HELP ASAP!  I CANNOT AFFORD TO BUY AN OFFICIAL DISC!  Feel free to ask questions.

I built the pc last Friday night, and have left it sitting for a bit after I failed then.  I've tried rebooting to no avail
