i am trying to install Vista and it gets to the very end where it says it is
completling installation but it never finishes. I left this morning and came
back 8 hours later and it still had not moved from this point. I turned off
the computer and it restarted and restored windows from a previous state.

I just tried again and got the same issue. I have run the compatibility tool
and my computer will work with Vista and has plenty of space...but I cannot
get it to complete the upgrade.
 
(If setup becomes non-responsive or does not complete), do a Cold Boot
(reset the machine) > Start the computer, when the Windows Boot Manager is
displayed, select Windows Setup press F8 on your keyboard and setup should
continue and finish up. If it does not, try checking the integrity of the
ISO Image you downloaded.
try reburning the ISO at a low speed, 2x recommended, also do a CRC check on
the ISO to find out its integrity. Nero MD5 Verifier is a recommended
choice. If setup still fails, its likely a bad download.

I use the one from Ahead Nero
http://ww2.nero.com/nero6/eng/Nero_MD5_Verifier.html

Here are the MD5/CRC values for x86 or x64 depending on which every ISO you
downloaded:

x86
- File Size = 3.12 GB (3,355,598,848 bytes)
- CRC Value = 0x67E089E0
- MD5 Value = 0E733AB1A8E8FF9A8684FD3639332773
x64
- File Size = 4.01 GB (4,309,368,832 bytes)
- CRC Value = 0x48697711
- MD5 Value = E43502D0A15EADD551119D5639859E04

Paste the MD5 Checksum for either x64 or x86 depending on which one you want
check in Step 1, Step 2 - Browse to where you stored the ISO on your drive
and open it and it will automatically start the varification process and
generate the has in the third field, if it matches Step 1, then you are
safe.

HI,

I have tried this three different times now and the same result happens. I
get almost done and it says completing installation but it will never finish.
