Problem with installing XFree86 on Win 2000

Hi everybody.

When I try to install XFree86-base (and, consequently, the files that option
selects), the installation process hangs. Specifically, the two options that
cause the installation to hang are XFree86-fenc and XFree86-fnts (both
versions of these two options fail to install).

The version of the installer is 2.249.2.5 (which, I believe, is the latest
version). 

When installing XFree86-fenc, the installations hangs on the file
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/encodings/adobe-dingbats.enc.gz
When installing XFree86-fnts, the installations hangs on the file
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi/charB08.pcf.gz

If it's of any help, my machine is a Pentium 3, running Windows 2000. If
there is any more additional info I can provide, please let me know.
