| Guest | can't load Vista... I need simple advice and explanations: I ran my Vista Upgrade 32bit Basic install DVD (to replace XP sp2) per the onscreen directions... But, all my computer is doing is continuously (all night-long, in fact!) rebooting itself. What I see, in sequence, is firstly the usual screen listing my drives(2 hard & 1 DVD),then a screen listing the start-up files, then a menu screen asking if I want to boot-up into Safe modes or into normal Vista mode: After these, I only get a black screen with a "progress"(?) screen with the running green stripes(which cross left to right 7 times),and which says Microsoft Corporation beneath...and that is the end of it! -- this rebooting cycle instantly starts again, endlessly... ;( PLEASE HELP!!! (again, I need very simple, dumbed-down, instructions)TIA Peter Franklin |
