i send you a personal e-mail, but maybe you would rather answer it here. Can
you conform that microsoft is aware of this and/or has a solution for this?

My original message was:

On my pc I have since the first beta2 of vista the problem that after
installing it (installation seems to go well) I only get a black screen with
the buildnumber at the right bottom en the mouse pointer. I have no serial
mouse attached just a keyboard and a bluetooth mouse wich I want to install
after logging into Vista but I can't because I only see this black screen.
Does anyone know at microsoft what this problem is causing.

Prior to insallation I ran Vista upgrade adviser. It told me that the
harddiskdriver isn't compattible with Vista but when installing Vista I can
see all my harddisks and it installes without problems so I don't think this
has anything to do with it.
I installed Vista with loading the beta SATA driver from Nvidia and
Installed it a second time without loading a seperate driver (using the
buildin driver form Vista) but both times the same sollution, the black
screen.

My system specs a
Mobo Asus K8N4-E deluxe
AMD 64 3200+ processor
2 x 1024 Gb Kingston memory
1 x 300 Gb Maxton SATA harddisk
1 x Geforce 6600LE videocard
1 x hauppauge 500MCE tv-card
blue tooth microsoft mouse and keyboard
when installing a use a normal keyboard but no mouse

That is a Known Issue with Nvidia's Driver's.

Hello ReMeE,

Did Beta 2 work? If you still have your current 5536 install, please try
booting into safe mode. If you can get into safe mode open computer management
by clicking on the Start Orb and then typing 'compmgmt.msc' into the search
box and press enter. Once in computer management open the event viewer and
see if you find any entries in the System or Application logs that would
cause a system hang. If you can not get into safe mode try doing a clean
install and formatting the drive you are installing on first. It could be
that the upgrade "failed" and Windows Setup decided to go on or there could
be an underlying driver issue.

No, beta 2 didn't work also. I did a clean installation with letting setup
format mij harddisk before starting the installation so it is not a upgrade
issue. I will try to install Vista again and after this is finished and I see
the black screen I will reset the computer and try to boot into safemode. I
know I did this before and got a message that setup can't continue in
safemode. Do you suggest to load the satadrivers from Nvidia or the standard
vistadrivers during the installation?
