| | Re: installing vista First...what build are you trying to install? 32 bit or 64? Someone will post the hash for your build and you can compare it to the download with a CRC checker to make sure the download is not corrupt. Also, you need to burn it at the slowest speed your burner will allow.

| | Re: installing vista robbie, Stick with the 32 bit OS if you don't have a 64 bit processor. Here is the hash for the 32 bit Vista MD5 hash: 22486e815a38feffd9667317dfeec55a Only thing is I can't remember if that hash was for Pre RC1 or RC1 so let me see if I can check on that for you or someone else can chime in here.

| | Re: installing vista Here is the link to the Nero MD5 verifier you need to install the check the download you have for corruption. http://www.nero.com/enu/Nero_MD5_Verifier.html Install that software and then follow the instructions to copy and paste the hash I provided. Then the verifier will compare the hash against your download. Do that and then post back here if you need more help.
