Failed Driver Install after GUI loads
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. |

Failed Driver Install after GUI loads
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. SBJ "MDK" schrieb im Newsbeitrag ...

Failed Driver Install after GUI loads
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.
