Are you installing an official beta from Microsoft’s TechNet or MSDN Website, I believe you are not because you say that you have downloaded various copies and also because you would have asked inside the newsgroups not here, even if we could help you, you have not given us enough info.

Easy solution, make sure you install it on a fresh partitioned drive also make sure your not opening the setup from inside the extracted files, you must mount the image onto a virtual cd-rom drive.

Sorry to say this but if you don’t know what that is then you shouldn’t even be installing longhorn.
