At about 98 percent completion my Vista install hung up. It will not get me
back to my original desktop as it recovers from a "serious internal error".
Any suggestiong how to save my data, get my original desktop back or go
forward with Vista?

Reinstall your previous operating system and restore your files from your
backup.

If this is a production or primary home computer, do not install Vista on it
unless you are using a free partition or second hard drive. Even then there
is some risk of loss of your data.
