Cannot install SP1 on Windows 7 Beta

I have installed MS VS 2008 Team Suite with the MSDN help files and
now I am trying to install SP1. When I mount the ISO as a virtual
drive and double click autorun.exe I see a command window pop up and
the error "Program too big to fit in memory" and the command window
closes.

I made sure that I had max RAM available (1.2 GB available of 2 GB on
my laptop).

I am not sure how to get around this issue so that I can use 2008 on
my Windows 7 Beta machine.

Any ideas?

On Windows, the exact message "program too big to fit in memory" is a
spurious error from the MS-DOS age, caused by a badly constructed .EXE. It's
not your memory.

Your downloaded ISO file is likely corrupt. Re-download it, and make sure
the verify it. The MSDN site typically mentions the hash values. You may
also try running setup.exe directly, but if your download is corrupt this is
not recommended, even if it manages to run.
