Terry,

Just to let you know you're not alone, I am having the same problem trying to install Windows 7 RC on my son's computer. The same disk installed fine on a laptop so I'm pretty sure I have a good copy. In my case the installation stops at the 45% mark of "Expanding windows files".

This just occurred last evening, so I haven't figured out a solution as of yet. What little research I have done suggests such things as updating the motherboard BIOS or the firmware of the DVD drive.

Note that I successfully installed the Windows 7 Beta on this same machine.

If you figure anything out about this problem please post it back here.
