Apple Support El Capitantruedup



I've tried to download and install El Capitan on my Early 2008 MacBookPro. Which according to Apple should still support the update. Everything downloaded and install went through all the way to the end and I get a huge error log in the background and it says something generic like 'El Capitan cannot be installed.' It then asks if I want to reinstall El Capitan which I've tried several times with the same result. When I restart in Recovery Mode everything appears to be the new El Cap interface. I was able to do a full backup of my hard drive to an external from Disk Utility. I read and tried several of the 'fixes' from Apple Support Community but nothing seems to work. I'm assuming my only option is to now do a clean install, however, when I go to the Internet it won't let me open the App Store, so I can't download a fresh copy onto an external drive. I'm not even sure if that is necessary. I'm not sure what to do now as I don't want to erase my HD before I have a solution. Also, I cannot seem to boot in safe mode either. Help Please! I can't believe Apple would release this botched software update! Now my computer is useless.
