Vista - Pre-RC1 terminates while expanding the files.

When installing pre-rc1 the software terminates says the it can't find files
it need to run. I thinK that my download was corrupted and now I can't
redownload the ISO file.
Did anyone else have this problem?
Also what size is the download supposed to be?

Mine is reading from the drive and gives me a BSOD stating "Memory Managment"
when its expanding files at 0%

I'm having the same issue, although expanding files usually gets to a few
percent (it varies) before the BSOD. What hardware do you have?

I've got an Athlon XP 2400+, nForce2 motherboard, 1GB RAM.

For what it's worth, I was receiving the same error with the DVD ISO. Turns
out it was an issue with my CD/DVD-ROM drive. I switched my BIOS to boot
from my Plextor DVD burner, and I was able to install successfully.
