System:  HDD=WD Caviar SE16 640GB; mobo=Biostar TA 770 A2+ SE; cpu=AMD Athlon 64 x2 6000+; 2GB of Memory; CD/DVD Burner; & EVGA GeForce 9400 GT vid card.System recognizes all components.  When install CD is put in read drive, which I did config. BIOS to boot from 1st just for install.  Says Windows is downloading files, and then, I just get a blue screen like what is the wallpaper from the Vista Home Premium desktop screen.This is my first Vista install, obviously.  Suggestions?

Does the system hang or does it eventually continue after several minutes?

It finally started back up after at least 15 minutes...I just wasn't waiting long enough. I guess I was just too used to having everything pop right up and being at the ready.

Thanks.
