Installation hang...

Trying for an UPGRADE over XP home, which occupies less than 5Gb of a 40Gb
partition (thus 35Gb remain).

Ran the Vista compatibility adviser. It says...

"Windows Vista drivers for these devices exist, but they require you to
install them (or contact manufacturer)"

Sound, Video & Game controllers Creative SBLive! & Creative SBLive! Gameport
Modem Motorola SM 56
Speakerphone Modem
Printers Canon MP130

All else is listed as "no action required."

Doesn't seem likely that any of those would hang the installation, yet it
does hang - at the last of the five steps.
In XP, Windows auto update is _not_ enabled - but that probably makes no
difference.

Bad d/l of the installation file, or a hosted DVD burn??
This is a P4 on a ASUS P5P800 board, with 512 RAM.
