Tomb Raider: Legend- Install freeze/ Help me install!

[Kaelang]

Hey folks-
I have an Asus G73JH notebook and a problem with TR:L.
Specs:
Windows 7 HP 64 Bit
ATi Mobility Radeon HD 5870
Core i7 720QM
6 GB RAM
500 GB 7,200 RPM Seagate HD

When I try to install, everything goes fine until about 90% or so, where it just stops. When I hit cancel, the program stops responding.

I've tried:
Q: I am having problems installing the game / The install does not finish
A: Try one of the following:
-Open the task manager and end the process called SET58.tmp
-Open the task manager and reduce the priority of the install process *.tmp

Or cancel the automatically appearing install screen and start the setup.exe manually
Left-clicking the start menu
Clicking "Computer"
Right-clicking the DVD drive containg the disc and selecting "explore"
Double-clicking the "setup" file manually
(This was for Anniversary though, and the SET58.tmp process doesn't show up on my machine, nor does *.tmp.)

I will try copying the files EXCEPT the Directx folder as stated in the help thread http://forums.eidosgames.com/showthread.php?t=68402

Does anyone know how I can get the bloody game to install? I know the disk works because I was able to use it on my Acer Aspire 6920.

I've found the issue- it stops at the file "death.bik"

The drive stops spinning as fast when the freeze happens. It drops to a few RPM's, and every few seconds the drive spins back up to 100% then repeats infinity. Any idea why that file is being a butt?

EDIT:
Just did the "copy everything except directx" and though it paused for a few minutes at death.bik, it appears to have finished. I'll let you know what happens.

EDIT 2:
Install complete! Going to make sure the game works. I'll post if I have an issue.
