2k install hangs on "Saving settings"

[videobruce]

I must of done a couple of dozen 2k installs, but this is the first time I had one hang on "Saving settings"
I rebooted once, it picked up before that portion of the install process, but it again hung at the same spot.

I'm using a nLite edited 2k install w/ sp4 slipstreamed. I have used nLite with XP with no issue, but this was the first time I used it with 2k. (
nLite allows for a custom install of the O/S as a one program process to add files, slipsteam patches, SPs', drivers etc. and then burn a copy. It really makes the install nicer.)

This is on a systen that has a different HDD and video card, but the same PS, MB, processor & memory. I haven't tested the HDD with the utility from the manufacture for any errors yet, but I formatted ok through the Windows install.

Any ideas??
