installing vista problems
Hi all,
I purchased a samsung 1TB hdd the other day for my media pc. I have tried to install vista on it 3 times now, but it will not load! All appears to go well during install, but then during boot up the screen just stays black. I have even installed xp and then done an upgrade to vista, but the same thing happens! I have never installed windows on a hdd of this capacity before, is there something which perhaps I am not doing? Cheers guys Mike |

Assuming the XP install went well perhaps you have a bad Vista disc?

some DVD readers can't even boot certain DVDs. For example, on my desktop, it has difficulty booting the Vista DVD I burnt, but on my laptop, it boots it then crashes because my laptop is far from reaching the minimum specifications (Intel Pentium III)
