problem installing vista

Hi,
i have my friends acer aspire m3600. he has deleted the backup partition and hasnt got windows on at all now. the problem is when i try installing vista ultimate, it gets to the last part and just pauses. im wondering if it needs the raid drivers, but i cannot find them anywhere! i understand the chipset is an intel 946PL/GZ

thanks

it stalls at "Completing Installation" part and goes no further, never come across this problem before
