error during boot vista installer

Hoping this error hasn't been answered, I put mine.
First, I'm french, so, by advance, excuse my language errors, thank you ;-)
So, I have downloaded the Vista's ISO this afternoon and i have burned it ( Nero 7 ) into a dvd+rw ( Philips ).
My computer's configuration is : AMD Athlon XP 2400+ 2.00 GHz RAM : 1.75 GB
Graphic card : ATI radeon 9600 SERIES
When I boot my pc on the dvd, I have a black screen and this : "Windows is loading files" with a status bar.
This finished, I have this error message :
"Windows did not start correctly. A recent hardware or software change might be the cause.
File : \windows\system32\winload.exe Status : 0xc000035a Info : Attempty to load a 64-bit application, however this CPU is not compatible with 64-bit mode"
For information, I have installed the pack "inspirat vista" few months ago and, thanks to my engeneer school, I have had a conference on vista. So, I have seen vista in action, that's why I want to test it !!!
If you need more details ...
Good evening

Hello Nicolas;
You have attempted to install Windows Vista Beta 2 64-bit onto a computer that does not have a 64-bit CPU. You need to download the 32-bit (also called x86) version. And hurry because it all ends today.
And your english is much better than my french.
Mark

Thank you Mark,
I have downloaded the 64-bit version too fastly apparently, I didn't see that a 32-bits version existed.
Thank you, I'm downloading now

Ok, first of all, just so you know, Nero 7 won't work in Vista. They are not compatible, so don't even try to install it when you have Vista. I suggest you install Vista when you are running XP. I had a similar message to yours, so I tried to install from XP, and everything went ok. In case you don't know, Vista will delete your display drivers, so you will have to download them, or if you have them on the original CD/DVD that came with you computer, you can get them from there. Try installing from XP and see what comes up. I wanted to do a clean install so in case there was something wrong in XP, it would start new. I simply backed up my documents in a external hard drive. Good Luck

The exact same thing happens to me. I thought it might be my nforce4 mainboard, but not too sure. I burned mine with nero7 too in xp.
I tried to install from boot and within xp to an 40bg partition, but get the same error.
Goes though installation, copies files, restarts, loader screen comes up and then just dies. Sometimes i get the hardware error if doing the boot install.
