Freezing on Vista Install

[Guest]

I recently downloaded the pre-release of Vista and when i boot it up with the
ISO it freezess at the first screen where it gives the the language options.
My specs are P4 2.6 1 gig of ram 80 gig HD, and video card. I burned it with
NERO 7 at 4x. What do I do?

I had a similar problem, mine froze at the very end, the second time I let
it run all night, but in the morning I had to switch it off and it rolled
back.
I finally did a clean install.

Not as bad as it sounds, the old installation is saved in a directory called
windows.old.

All the personal files and program files are there, you have to install all
the program files again though.

I am running Office 2007 beta on Vista Beta Pre RC1, on a new PC, Dell
Optiplex GX280, I built from new components bought on EBay, so it is all a
learning curve.

Ride safe
