Vista - Error occurred while setup validating...

"An Error ocurred while setup was validating the system for installation"
*********Please dont send me to a webpage to look at option 4..

This occurs right after choosing the drive I want to install to.

Clean install on formatted partition from DVD.... DVD confirmed 4. gb file.

setup:
asus A8N32-SLI deluxe
FX60
2 gb corsair
2X EVGA 7900 GTX in SLI
2X60 mb SATA in Raid 0
using latest Nvidia raid beta drivers

Any help would be appreciated.

Have you tried mounting the Image with Virtual Drive software such as Daemon
Tools or NERO Image drive> Did you install the ISO at a low speed 2x? Have
you tried extracting the contents of the ISO to a folder in XP and launch
setup from there?

Also, did you check the integrity of the ISO to make sure there are no
errors:
I use the one from Ahead Nero
http://ww2.nero.com/nero6/eng/Nero_MD5_Verifier.html

Here are the MD5/CRC values for x86 or x64 depending on which every ISO you
downloaded:

x86
- File Size = 3.12 GB (3,355,598,848 bytes)
- CRC Value = 0x67E089E0
- MD5 Value = 0E733AB1A8E8FF9A8684FD3639332773
x64
- File Size = 4.01 GB (4,309,368,832 bytes)
- CRC Value = 0x48697711
- MD5 Value = E43502D0A15EADD551119D5639859E04

Paste the MD5 Checksum for either x64 or x86 depending on which one you want
check in Step 1, Step 2 - Browse to where you stored the ISO on your drive
and open it and it will automatically start the varification process and
generate the has in the third field, if it matches Step 1, then you are
safe.

OK, since your other solutions required me to put some form of windows back
on the computer...I reloaded my x64 Professional back up..then installed from
the DVD while in windows....worked fine!.... Not sure what the bug is on
doing a clean install.
(sure glad I didnt have to go through all the other hassel of mounting the
image!)
