AM I the only one could not run the vista?

Hi, I downloaded the beta 2 x86 version from the MS site, when I install it ,
after the first reboot, it could not successfully loaded.
After the progress bar finished, I saw the blue screen, it said there is
some hardware problems.
Is there anyone meet the same thing as me?

"it said there is some hardware problems"
If you were more specific, you might get a specific answer.

A great many have various hardware problems but most can be resolved.

Try removing all unnecessary hardware such as NIC, sound card, printer etc.

Use the Windows Vista upgrade Adisor prior to installation.

Also make sure that your partition that you are installing Vista on is
formatted using NTFS.

From Microsoft -
"1) We are hitting a legitimate threshold as to how fast we can serve up the
bits without affecting the rest of the Net.
2) People should consider ordering the DVD
While we are excited to see the huge demand, this is more about being good
citizens and helping users who are waiting know they can order the DVD."

Please reply in newsgroup.

Hi,

Strip the machine of unnecessary peripherals - you can alway add them later,
reset BIOS timing settings to defaults (and ensure that any antivirus
detection schemes in there are disabled or Vista cannot create the
bootstrap), no overclocking, and it may help to run a software check on the
ram to check for any inconsistencies.
