Gday all

I hear of this happening all the time so i thought i'd give it a try and put Vista onto a memory stick (the memory stick is a Sandisk U3 Titanium 4GB) and see if i could boot it on the laptop, The laptop is a Toshiba Tecra M10 with a Intel Core 2 Duo T9600

After pressing f2 to get to the bios settings i chose to boot the vista ISO of the memory stick

Once i chose it, it did not want to boot :rolleyes: Confused i tryed again but with no avail:confused:.. So i went to my main machine and chose to boot vista of the memory stick and no hassels.. The laptop Runs XP naturally..

Still confused as to why it boots on the tower instead of the laptop so i thought i would ask the pro's.. Help please

Cheers all
