Hello everyone, like the subject says...every time it starts to load..it reboots and then gives me an error message stating windows has encountered an unexpected errror...and then I click ok, reboots and does the same thing over again! I am out of ideas. I just downloaded the copy from Microsoft today (filename: vista_5600.16384.060829-2230_x86fre_client-lr1cfre_en_dvd). Any help will be appreciated!

System confing: Athlon XP 2100+/1GB/Radeon 9600Pro/using older 20GB HD to demo vista/Gigabyte motherboard

My suggestion:
1) Remove all add-on hardwares such as sound controller, ethernet
interface card, etc. except a display adapter card, then try installing
WVT. If intallation still fails, then
2) Make a new bootable DVD rom from the downloaded ISO file and try it
again.
