Vista Tutorial - Blue screen of death durring durring instalation

Someone I know has been having trouble installing Vista. After they enter
the installation key, wait for it to install, and reboot, they get the blue
screen of death which asks them to remove the hardware which the have
installed, but they never installed any hardware in the first place. The
technical information is:
STOP 0X0000009C (0X00000004,0X833DE9A8,0Xb2000000,0X00070F0F)

I get a very similar error during, well I should say before install. It is
very annoying, I have searched all over the web for info on these errors,
most places tell you it is a hardware error. Mine happens upon loading the
disk, after the first bar, I never get to see any install info, or setup.

In my case, not only have a run a hardware test of many kinds(PC Doctoer,
memtest, ontrack, burnintest and others) but Windows XP 64, and many versions
of linux run successfully on this computer. And have for months

My setup:
GA-K8U-939 Motherboard
AMD Athlon 64 3500+
1gig ram(2x512,tried both dual channel and single)
ATI 9600XT 256Mb graphics card, ATI, not 3rd party
Creative Audigy 2
Pinnacle DV Capture Card
1 100 Gig WD IDE HD
1 160 Gig Hitachi SATA
1 250 Gig Samsung SATAHD(have tried using the 100 and the 160 as
install(first boot) drives)
USB mouse and Keyboard, also tried PS/2s though

I have tried removing all the hardware down to bare onboard and still
nothing. I know I have no issues with my hardware, I know all my settings and
BIOS are correct with the latest available BIOS.

Is this Beta really so beta it can't even the install kernel can't load
under some set of conditions? Either way, is this something I can work
around, or is Vista just plain not ready for use?
