Glad to hear it
Apart from the odd weird (read unexplained/unexplainable) hiccup I love the service provided from OVH.
Sometimes things work, sometimes they don't.
Why that is I leave to the god in charge of kicking servers.

Try reinstalling with the defaults, then follow these instructions to get an official CentOS setup screen which you can customize as you want:

Why don't you try a bit more than 4GB. Maybe it is low on space?

i have entered a ticket from witch it just looks like they have re-installed the default partitions and os
and each time i try to change the parts and re-install it just hangs like up above
