Installing windows 8, cannot find a location to store temporary

2

Im trying to install windows 8 from a iso file, because i lack an optical drive.
Though I'm getting an error when running the mounted install. I'm Running windows 7. Because I could not get my iso file to be bootable for windows 8

Windows Setup cannot find a location to store temporary installation files. To install windows, make sure that a partition on your boot disk has at least 1010 megabytes(MB) of free space Error code 0x80070490

This I do have, My disc is almost empty a new 256gb samsung ssd.

I have tried this solution: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_vista-windows_update/window-update-error-windowsupdate80070005/a9a2c92d-793b-4050-bdb1-720bb97bd78d (subinacl + reset)

Help would be much appreciated. Thanks
