I've downloaded (many times) the latest WAIK (1.1) and when trying to
install I get an error - "the cabinet file "winpe.cab" is corrupt".

I've tried downloading it from within Desktop Deployment Console as well
with no luck.

Anyone else seen this issue.

Did you check your antivirus program blocking or deleting ?

I am getting the same thing and dis-abling antivirus doesn't help.

Figured it out. There wasn't enough disk space on the C: drive.

Just ran into same issue. Make sure to check that the version of Windows AIK you are downloading is appropriate for your Server or client OS. In particular, I downloaded the version for Windows Server 2008 and Vista. However, I was running Server 2008 R2 so this version did not work. The correct Windows AIK for Windows7/Windows2008 R2 can be found at:
