Default 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???

Hi, Dominic.

Did the computer ever boot? When did it stop booting? What happened just
before that?

Which Vista version is installed?

Vista loads the driver


Which driver?

What kind of HDD? SATA II? Have you checked its cables?

the load driver screen.

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.
