windows vista not completing setup

Have tried to install Vista Beta 2 32-bit(x86) DVD three times. Each time it stops whilst Expanding Files at 21%. Upgrading XP SP2 on a Vista Compatible PC ? -- Grahame

I am having the same problem, three different downloads, two different DVDs, same problem. At 21% I get: "An error occured whilre preparing Windows Setup to boot into the next stage of Setup."
Any ideas????

Are you installing from XP, or directly booting from DVD?
p.bes

oddly enough, I installed it fine on an old 80g drive, but it won't upgrade from XP...
