Instalation under AMD Athlon 64 AM2

I'm trying to install Windows Vista on a PC:
- AMD Athlon 64 processor, 3000+ Socket AM2
- 1GB RAM Kingston DDR2 533MHz
- HD Seagate 320GB SATA2 7200rpm 16mb
- HD Seagate 200GB SATA 7200rpm 8 mb
- MB MSI K9NGM

When the instalation program initiates, I recieve the following message error:

Stop: C000021 {Fata System Error}
The initial session process or system process terminated unexpectedly with a
status of 0x00000001 (0xc0000001 0x001003a8)
The system has been shut down

I don't know if some of these components may be incompatible with Vista

Thanks a lot
