Blue Screen of Death when installing 828 Vista Driver

Hello all.
I was scheduled to record with my friends tonight on my new interface. But I can't get the drivers to install.
I used to run an Alesis Multimix Firewire 8 and had problems getting that to run smoothly, so I made the *supposed* upgrade to a MOTU.
I downloaded the drivers from the MOTU website and tried to install them but the system didn't recognize them even after a restart.
So I uninstalled the drivers and tried to install again, but before the install was finished I received the Blue Screen of Death.
I repeated this cycle a few times and tried cleaning out the registry and installing the driver through Windows, to no avail.
Anyone have any ideas on how I can get this to work? Might I have to downgrade operating systems, or has anybody figured this out yet?

Windows Vista Home Premium

Make sure your 828 is not plugged in until after you install the driver and reboot.
