Vista Ultimate 64x install problem!

Just been installing Vista Ultimate 64x, doing well and told me needed to restart to carry on, so i did. As it started to load i get a blue screen 5 seconds into windows loading bar, so i decide after a few failed attempts to remove the CD-ROM, it worked and it passed blue screen and said preparing to start pc for first time. As it carried on installing i get another blue screen, so i put disc back in again and when it loads windows now it says "The computer restarted unexpectedly or encountered an unexpected error, Windows installation cannot proceed. To install Windows, click "OK" to restart computer, and then restart installation.

Now im at stage trying to find how to restart installation as it keeps coming back to this screen.

Any ideas on why this happened or how to restart installation?

RE: Vista Ultimate 64x install problem!

A lot of people here have tried diff things.

One is to use only 2G RAM to install, then add the rest afterwards

Also. the fancier the Graphics Card, the more probs during install.
Use a low end one to install, replace later.
