I'm trying to install Vista build 5308, booting from a DVD. I get to the
screen with the little progress bar animating near the bottom, then a blank
screen and no further activity.

This is a recent vintage machine: P4, 2.8Ghz, 1Gb RAM, 200Gb SATA hard
drive, DVD & CD-ROM drives, nVidia 5600 FX video. All components are
known-good (had Svr2k3 running previously).

Ideas? Suggestions?

I can dig up more details on chipsets, etc., if that'd help.
