Hello Everyone
I finally got Vista installed, after spending days trying to get it to work.
All the errors I got had nothing
to do with the reason why, for example one error stated that it would close
down to prevent damage
to the machine, and everytime there would be a different error message, that
is not logical.
The installation wizard has great difficulty finding drivers even when they
are on the same drive, for
example, if you remove a card and change slots on the motherboard, it can
not find the drivers even
though they were previously installed.
The reason my installation failed numerous times is because of the slot that
the video card occupies
(even when you configure the bios to use the second pci-e slot and the users
guide says you can use
either slot) but microsoft would not allow it. Why would I use the second
slot because I have a adaptec
39320 card and asus recommend using the first pci-x slot and there is not
enough room for the video
card in slot 1 with the 39320 in the first pci-x slot ( bad design by ASUS )
before you say it, yes I have
the latest bios for my motherboard which is a M2N32 WS Pro and the video
card is a power color
ATI X1600Pro.
It seems to me Microsoft need to lift their game.
Thank you.
