windows vista beta 2 install error

Mr. Gypsy--

I agree it's probably the burn. 4X should be plenty slow enough. I know
MSFT has been posting to burn slower lol than some burners actually have.
Also activity on the PC during the burn shouldn't influence it one scintilla
although the impulse is to think it would.

Try this little tip as well next time you burn if you still haven't gotten
setup to complete--also make sure you're closing the session and if your
burning software has the ability to choose "burn ISO" as Nero has in their
versions then use that.

Also check these steps which could help.

Get to Dev Manager by typing devmgmt.msc in run/win key + pause break or Rt.
click My Computer>Prop>hardware tab>Device Manager if you like 5 steps
instead of one cmd. If you're set to PMI here change to DMO and if set to
DMO change to PMI:

a.. Click the + in front of IDE ATA/ATAPI Controllers
a.. Double Click the Secondary IDE Controller
a.. Click Advanced Settings
a.. Under Device 1  Next to Transfer Mode choose DMA (or vise versa)
a.. Click OK
a.. Reboot your System

Good luck,

CH
