Yes, I've almost pulled all my hair out trying to get Vista RC1 installed!
I've posted before, but every attempt to get Vista to install fails at the
'expanding files stage' - always around 20-30%.
I've tried:
- upgrade from XP
- new install from XP
- clean install from booting from DVD
- removing 1Gb RAM as suggested by one poster
- removed my RAID setup in case that was the problem
- run MEMTEST for hours on my RAM with no problems
- reformatted my drives several times, etc, etc.
and NO NO NO - it will not work.
What on earth could be the problem here? Don't see what component it could
be that's causing the problem.
HELP!!!
 
It just reboots. Every time at around 20-30% of 'expanding files'. Different
builds, different downloads and different burns!
