vista stops install after file copy before 'file gathering' no err

trying to install vista complete; when it does the scan, says it will work,
no major problems, goes into copying files (finishes this 100%), then spends
about 2 minutes in 'gathering files' but never moves the counter off 0%, then
stops intallation without giving me any error codes or anything. How can I
figure out what is wrong and how to proceed?

Hi,
What is the indication you get that the installation has stoped?

it gives me a message in the box that the installation cannot continue and
gives me the popup button to click for close. It also says that any changes
made will not take effect.
Thanks,
