Freeze issues with Vista Beta 2 Installation

I have been encountering issues with Windows Vista Beta 2 (Build 5384) and
wondered if anyone else had found a good resolution to it.
Whenever I run the installer it simply freezes within the first few minutes.
There seems to be no logic to the pattern of the freezes, sometimes it occurs
as the file copy begins, sometimes even before the regional selection screen
and at various points in-between.
I have followed the instructions for this build, the iso download checksum
is good and I burned the image onto a Sony DVD +RW at 1x Speed.
I initially thought it might be an issue with my overclocking settings, I
run my Athlon64 processor around 200MHz above spec, but there was no
difference after I put the settings back to normal.
If anyone else has experienced this issue and has had any sucess with
resolving it then please let me know. I know I'm not the only one who has
experienced this issue.
