Vista 64bit SP1 not getting past driver load screen
I have a machine with a Gigabyte GA-EP45-UD3R mobo, 8GB ram and a 500GB hdd
and plus video card and an IDE DVD rom. Vista loads the driver then reports that it cannot find any new devices which I assume it means it cannot find the HDD. i have tried all kinds of permutations of the bios settings. Can anyone help??? Dominic |

Many users have had trouble installing Vista 64 bit on systems with 4GB or
more of RAM. In many of these cases they could install with 2GB and then up the memory to 4GB or more later. so I suggest that you try with 2GB.
