Problem Installing: Error laying down images

I'm getting an error while running the Windows Vista Beta 2 installation. I
am on an Inspiron 9300, 2GB of RAM, 150GB hard drive, and a 1.86GHz centrino.


Everything works fine until I get to the "Expanding Files" part of the
installation. I have tried installing several times, and it always gives me
the error message "An error occurred while laying down images" at 19% though
expanding files.

I am using DAEMON tools v4.03HE to mount the ISO. Any help would be
appreciated, thank you.

File a bug. Look for a \panther folder which should contain some setup log
files that need to be included in the bug report.
