..Suprise suprise.
Hello,
I am trying to Install Windows Vista Ultimate OEM 32-bit on my new build that I recently purchased. I have got to different stages and have had so many errors that I have lost track. I have got the BSOD numerous times and to be honest, I don't know why I decided to buy Vista.
I have got so far to the Hard drive drvers screen before I plugged in my USB memory stick and it stopped responding. After that, I haven't go as far. Sometimes I get a BSOD right after it has finished loading the files explaining to me that it couldn't write to the memory because it was read-protected. I haved also got to the language select screen but it doesn't respond. I've even got as far as the regristration key input (again) and I get a little pop-up box saying all sorts of errors. Is it my system which isn't compatible? (BTW my Vista is legal)
Specs:
ASus Maximus Extreme
Intel Core 2 Duo Q6700
BFG nVidia GeForce 8800 Ultra
4GB OCZ DDR3 1333mhz RAM (only one stick used in installation)
2x WDC 500GB SATA II HDs in RAID0 (SATA ports 1 and 2)
Samsung and Pioneer DVD drives (SATA ports 4 and 6)
Thermaltake Toughpower 1200watt PSU
Hope that is all you need to know at this stage.
[B]Thanks ever so much![b]
