An annoying issue - I've done a lot of research into this issue, and the best thread I've found is over at Reddit.
I've tried unplugging every USB peripheral except Keyboard/Mouse, uninstalling Microsoft Security Essentials, doing it from a Clean Boot and disabling all network adapters - and it still fails at about 50% of configuring settings.
If anyone's got anymore advice, that'd be great.
I'm running a SSD with a 1TB Hard Disk.
UPDATE (27/09/2015): I've still had no success with this upgrade, even after trying the ISO upgrade.
I couldn't find an upgrade ISO anywhere, but apart from that I've done all the steps. – Tim Coysh – 2015-09-23T19:32:11.763
@Tjcrazy How to download official Windows 10 ISO files will give you a Windows 10 ISO. The ISO can be used to first upgrade (see How to: upgrade from previous versions of Windows using Windows 10 ISO file) and then later perform a clean install if you want.

just tried from the ISO upgrade, and again it failed with the same error code – Tim Coysh – 2015-09-24T12:59:01.937
@Tjcrazy Did you "disconnect from the Internet during setup, if you are connected by LAN (Ethernet) or Wi-Fi, disable both and attempt setup again." as instructed? – DavidPostill – 2015-09-24T13:01:45.010
yes - disabled all network adapters – Tim Coysh – 2015-09-24T13:10:55.287
