installing beta

Hi, I ordered DVD from msft. I got it and try to install in my pc in separate HD. which has 15 gig space. It copies file to hd ok and when it tries to install files, it stops at 31% and get msg that problem copying some image file. and it restarts the pc and goes back to normal.
I tried 2 times and i get the same msg at same 31%. Could it be a bad dvd?
plsease some one help me.

I am no expert but I did read on another post that you should have 20-25gigs available.....at least that solved their problem.....

Vista x86 needs ~15-16GB to install properly, Vista x64 needs more like 20-25GB from what I've found, although in both cases, you're left with more than 50% free space after installation is finished. ---------- Mark Dietz PROnetworks <http://www.pro-networks.org>
