| | RE: vista boot problem I have had this problem with Vista (and XP also) and both times it was a motherboard HDD cable connection issue. I guess the gremlins wiggle those loose too at times. Before doing anything drastic, check your cable connections. I have also seen a similar problem on another computer with a loose memory module. It can't hurt anything to check this before trying something else.
