You may be having the problem I've been having (although I've been trying to
install the 32-bit version). I boot from the DVD and I get to the Screen
with "Install Windows" in the Title bar. In the middle of the screen it says
Windows Vista

Install now

And on the bottom there are two choices:

What to know bewfore installing Windows

System recovery options.

As soon as I click Install now, I get the message "Setup could not get
information about the disks on your computer."

May I ask what motherboard you have?
