windows vista setup fails

Windows Vista Setup fails

Hi After trying for three days, I finally managed to download build 5384 Beta 2 64-bit edition of windows Vista. The ISO checked out and burned successfully to DVD, but when booting it stops after the "Install Now" page and reports "Cannot find information about your hard disks" and returns to the "Install Now" page.
I am using amd64 2800+ socket 754 1Gig RAM GeForce 6600GT 128mb AGP 2x80Gb SATA (RAID 0) 1x120GB IDE Gigabyte GA-K8NS Motherboard with latest BIOS patch (F19) Nforce 3 250 chipset
I have tried disabling the RAID - which is ok as I am going to install on a 55Gb partition on the IDE drive and even disabling the SATA controller, all to no effect.
Any help would be appreciated :)
