are you using the original dvd that came with the laptop? (if one came at all) laptops can have modified versions of windows dvd's with additional drivers implemented that the laptop needs... i've seen this in win xp days with a acer...

is this a laptop or pc?
how long did you wait? there is some point during the installation that looks like it just has stopped but you just have to wait it out... however i don'°t think it's usually around 49% ... other than that all i can say is check if you have some non-standard devices or settings that should be removed or set to default... it sounds like it fails to load some driver or smth.... well i'm not a huge expert but maybe we can figure this out
