It looks like you are using a slipstream install disk?

Read through the following forum thread. There is a lot of advice on this exact problem:

I'm thinking more likely that you have a bad install disk. The information you are giving isn't enough to do more than guess at what the problem could be.

Is the disk you are using a genuine Microsoft install disk or is it a burned image or copy?
