I downloaded the upgrade advisor and it says my computer is compatiable with
vista. So I installed it on my SATA drive, and when it boots up for the first
time. I get an installation failed error. It only lets me rollback to XP pro.
And in the whole process it screws up my lilo bootloader so I can no longer
boot up in linux. My PC configuration is as follows: Custom Built PC. Abit
KN8 Socket 939 mobo. with an AMD Althon 64bit 3800X2 processor, 1.5GB of
PC3200 RAM, nvidia geforce 7600 GS, DVD burner, and 3 HDDs. Main HDD is
IDE-133 120GB (1 NTFS Partition with XP Pro installed) Secondary is IDE-66
20GB (3 Linux partitions) and my SATA HDD is 300GB with 2 (partitions one
(200GB)is for data and the other is for Vista (100GB)).
Any ideas as to why Vista is acting like a loser? (I was able to use the
beta of Vista on this computer a couple of months ago in nov./ decem.)
