Hi everyone: Here is my situation: I have XP installed on a SATA drive in a computer I just put together (AMD x2 5600+, ASUS M2N-SLI Deluxe, 2Gig Ram) and I want to install another SATA drive with Vista Ultimate 64 bit and I want the ability to dual-boot like some people do when they have 2 operating systems on the same drive but in different partitions.

....or is it also for users, who don't run a comapny? I have bought a Windows VISTA DVD and when I received it, it had "OEM System Builder Pack" written on it. It also says: "EXCLUSIVELY for system builders." And after some research on the Wikipedia I see that COMPANIES that sell PCs normally buy OEM licenced software.

Hello, I am building a Vista Enteprise image and am using sysprep with an unattend.xml file. I have a couple of tweaks that I would like to add to this process but not sure if they are possible or where to look: 1) In Windows XP, you were able to see the various screens when minisetup run. Is there anyway to do this Vista? Right now, all I get is the default wallpaper and the busy...

I've had the same problem but with the Vista Business edition I got from MSDN. Ive burnt over 10 dvd's now. I get the same messages as described above. I've downloaded the .iso twice now. I've used Alcohol 120%, ImgBurn, and on Ubuntu I used GnomeBaker and K3B. I get the same messages trying to install on my laptop and my PC. I even swapped out my DVD reader on my PC with a spare. Its driving me...

I tried the suggestion in the KB article (931276) but it brought me an 0xC004F061 error. I've installed Vista to a new HD (old one died). I only have 4 days left (got the warning earlier). I had someone install Vista on this new HD and AFAIK he did install my XP first before installing this. Any help would be appreciated.

I want to upgrade from Vista Ultimate 32 to VU 64. I originally had VB 32 and bought the upgrade for VU 64 which is in my digital locker and then I have an upgrade cd MS sent me. Would I have to purchse the other DVD for the minimal fee and if so how would I go about using my VU pk for the VU 64 edition. I am quite familiar with how to install it just not sure how I need to get to that point

I am trying to install Vista Ultimate x64 onto a new Sata hard drive, it is the only hard drive in the system. During installation, no drives are found so I load the sata controller driver for the motherboard (Gigabyte MA790FX-DS5). Vista see's the drive at this point and I can select and install. The initial portion of the installation runs fine until the first reboot then I get the...

I have the following problem: I am trying to install Vista in another partition of my harddrive but every tie I do it after the first reboot I get the ndis.sys missing or corrupt message.

I need to have XP and Vista dual boot on 15 machines in a training suite. Current thinking is to get the machines (Dell) with XP installed under their Vista Business downgrade rights. This apparently gives us the XP and vista media and licences. Install Vista on the second partition - job done. Think of dual booting as a real time choice to exercise downgrade

I'm assuming by now that you have solved your problem. However, if not, you can try F8 while booting and go to LAST KNOWN GOOD CONFIGURATION (ADVANCED) hopefully your system will allow you to log in. In my case (I'm using Vista Ultimate 32bit), I have tried to load PC-Tools Antivirus and something got corrupted. Once I had logged in
