| | Re: Vista Blue screen of death? Michael, Well that bit worked, but then got to about 60% of file expansion and the BSOD came up with IRQL_MORE_OR_LESS_THAN and we get no futher than that, i have done a memory test from Vista repair and it says no probs found, i have checked ASUS website and i have the latest Bios installed, so am stuck now, trying to find a solution.

| | Re: Vista Blue screen of death? Hi Michael, No, its not worked, i now get to about 70% of the final installation phase and it fails to the IRQL message again. I have disabled my other 2 SATA drives, so only have the main c: drive on the system now, as i had read about problems with ASUS boards and Nvidia controllers. I have a ASUS P5n32 SLI delux with 2 gb ram installed, Intel 3gb dual processor, i ran chkdsk /f and am now doing a defrag, have unplugged all USB devices and am about to pull my hair out!!! this software is an expensive failure at £189.00 ?. So dont really know where to go from here, i ll try again after the defrag, i was also going to disable the on board LAN Cheers Paul "MICHAEL" wrote: > You're welcome. > > Please, let me/us know how it turns out. > > -Michael > > "Dougy" <Dougy@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message > news 7D0AD3F-944A-4123-9F4F-5ABE999DF68F@microsoft.com...> > Ok, > > > > Will do, i will let you know outcome, thanks for your help > > > > Paul > > > > "MICHAEL" wrote: > > > >> Dougy, > >> > >> Can you do a chkdsk on the drive?

| | Re: Vista Blue screen of death? Pull the RAM out, switch slots, be sure they are pushed in all the way, and try again. Perhaps, if that doesn't work try one stick at a time. I know you ran the memory test, but Vista is a bit stricter on the "health" of the RAM. It's either a RAM problem, graphics card, or maybe you need a BIOS update. It's just really hard to know with just that error- it can mean several things. Many times a memory problem. -Michael "Dougy" <Dougy@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:2B32569A-382D-4D3E-8BFF-FE1388442AB8@microsoft.com... > Hi Michael, > > No, its not worked, i now get to about 70% of the final installation phase > and it fails to the IRQL message again.
