Hi Guys, after buying a new Megaware/ASUS PC with Vista Home Premium in Portuguese, I reinstalled, first my old XP in English (no boot) and then Vista Ulimate in English also no boot.

Vista is the first OS I've tried to load on this machine. Every time I try to load Vista x64 Ultimate onto my hard drive I get an error message...

I just flashed the BIOS with the latest version, then deleted the partitions created by Acronis. I then deleted the RAID 1 setup and recreated it. Then went through Windows Vista installation setup.

I just don't...
