Installing Vista Beta (5384) fails by Elimination
- Installing Vista x86 under XP x86: After copying and unpacking it makes it's (first) reboot. After displaying the bootmanager menu it automaticly picks Vista setup. Screen goes black and "ticks" (as in switching resolution probably) and there is some HDD usage for a couple of seconds (it doesn't spin the cd drive up). Few seconds later it reboots. This results in the same loop. -...

Duel Boot Issue Not Yet Discussed by Spirefm
I have installed Vista on top of a dual boot system, so now I've got a triple boot system - XP Home English; XP Pro Spanish and Vista English. Eventually - when Norton & Nero catch up with Vista - I hope to have just 2 versions of Vista - English and Spanish. The boot arrangement is actually 'Vista or Previous'. Choosing previous takes me to the Home/Pro choice. It works OK

How do I reinstall wmdSync.exe? It got lost during the uninstallation of active sync4.2 (which I found out too late is not needed in vista). Now I get the message wmdSync.exefailed because RAPI.dll is missing. TIA Gerhard

pre rc1 upgrade from xp home by B Barley
I just did an upgade from xp home last on my laptop last night and wanted to post my results. #1 DO NOT DO AN UPGRADE There are several reasons. a. if you have a good deal of software installed, the upgrade could take a while. It took almost 4 hours for me to do an upgrade, as compared to just over an hour for a clean install.

VirtualPC to Virtualize Vista on Vista by William McIlroy
First, VirtualPC warns that Vista is a bad operating system upon which to run VirtualPC. That's not entirely true. VirtualPC works pretty okay on Vista except for some "issues" revolving around the new software that drives what shows up on the display(s) in front of you. These can be worked around. Second, Vista's installation procedure is maddeningly obtuse in that it gets to a point...

A8R32-MVP and SLI won't work? by Gary R.
Sorry about the misuse of the term "SLI", I know it's a Crossfire board.. SO is there a way to disable CROSSFIRE in BIOS? It's moot at this point because I just removed my secondary card completely and Vista STILL causes a reboot just after the Vista splash screen (just before the GUI would normally appear)... Thanks "Tompa" wrote: This mobo does not support SLI. It's a Crossfire mobo. ;)
