Thanks for the help. Looks like a re-install is necessary....

Given this issue, it would in retrospect be nice if MS could give an option
to control the startup loading of non-essential device drivers/applications
for just such an occasion. This is something they could add to the menu on
the boot disc recovery options fairly easily, I would imagine. I remember
years ago they made that possible to a certain extent with Win 98 et. al.

F8 on Boot - Last known good config.
F8 on Boot disable driver-signing check ( only in x86vista I think )

Boot via DVD and choose not install, but "repair options" - fix boot
trouble and so forth.

If all is not helping you will have to format / reinstall.

No virtual drive - Software is working in Vista ! No Alcohol/no Daemon
Tools etc..

Also certain Nero Versions do fail because of Nero Image Drive.

I stupidly installed Alcohol 120 percent in Vista and now every time
Windows loads, it automatically tries to install the incompatible driver
and gives me BSOD. I can't get into the registry to stop the installation
process quickly enough after my desktop comes up. Is there anything I can
do to stop this installation routine? Safe mode doesn't help here,
either.

System restore was turned off so that isn't an option. Any advice is
much appreciated.
