Vista - Vista RC1 (german) installation abort

Hi there,

i wonder if anybody has experience with RC1 setup in german... After
clicking "install now" an error post like "it is not shure that this version
of windows is functionally on your computer" appears. After confirming "OK"
or closing the window setup returns to the startscreen. No further comment,
the game can start again, again, again.
Vista Upgrade Advisor says everything should work fine... seems, everything
but SETUP!!!

My Vista copy is original from M$, downloaded two times.
i tried burning the iso on dvd or starting setup directly from harddisk
using nero image-drive. i also tried booting from dvd, that also didn't work,
my sytem always booted from harddrive, independend of the settings in bios.

Some facts:

AMD Sempron 2200+ (1,5 GHz), 1250 MB Ram, AMI Bios V 1,3
HDD#1 200 GB, HDD #2 40 GB on IDE1, HDD#3 160 GB, partitioned 100 and 60 GB
and LiteOnDVD on IDE2
Radeon 9800 graphics chip, Windows XP SP2

Thanks for any suggestions!

Hey,

I have installed it on two different computers. RC1 Build 5600 works and the
pre-RC1 version too.

I have burned it with Alcohol 120%

Thanks for your reply!

I guess RC1 would work on my computer, too, if i could only install it! The
problem is that setup doesn't start, i mean, i don't even get the message on
which partition to install, because setup stops before. maybe my computers
bios version is too old?
