It doesn't seem to be moving at all anymore, it has been about a half hour since it stopped and im almost 2 to 3 hours into the install now. It's almost 11:00pm here, and if i end up going to sleep and waking up at 8:00am it better have moved atleast one pixel :( im stuck anywheres around 90 to 95%, other times I thought it was stuck I moved a window over the progress bar to cover up what has already been process JUST TO MAKE SURE it was moving no matter how slightly.

I tried this route after the prep tool complained that I didn't have the VS 2008 trial CD, which I deleted after installing the full version.
