Setup hangs up after Entering oroduct key

After entering the product-key, setup seems to hang up without error message.
After 60minutes hd inaktivity i had to kill the process. Any hints to solve
the problem?

RE: Setup hangs up after Entering oroduct key

I had this when I downloaded the ISO image manually instead of using their
download manager. Try downloading the download manager version and burn the
DVD again.

I also had issues where autorun.dll and another file was corrupt when I put
the DVD in and it tried to start the installer in Windows XP. These shouldn't
appear and didn't with the other version.

Hope this helps.

I had the same problem and have not yet figured out a way around it. I
downloaded the ISO image using the download manager and, as per the
instructions, I burned it at a slower speed (and didn't run anything else on
the computer at the same time).
