Was planning on installing Vista Premium (Upgrade). Had an unused copy of 2000 Pro to preload and then do the upgrade. Well...dog came into the room and went under the bench and stepped on the power strip...lost power and now getting this notification. Cleared CSMOS,reset time/date,changed boot order to optical, and still getting an error loading os message. What is next. (Not killing the dog!) Thanks

You DO know that you can install a Vista upgrade WITHOUT installing any other OS, right? You install the upgrade in the trial mode, you then upgrade with the upgrade.........
There's articles on this, look for them. |
