You might need to clear up a couple items for anyone who can help you.

Did you install it then? What was running before that install?

What do you mean by "updated vista"? Do you mean that you installed
all the necessary updates, including SP1?

You don't update Vista from 32 bit to 64 bit. You perform a clean install.
The very first thing you do after the clean install is install the requisite
motherboard drivers from the M/B manufacturer.

Is this how you "updated"?

Sorry for the misunderstanding, I installed a clean version of Vista ultimate x64 SP1, and then a day later I proceeded to use windows update to update things.

Did you update your drivers?

Did you install EVERY Vista update?

Yes I updated my drivers.
I didn't install all of them - I installed most of the security updates etc.

If needed, I can post pictures of my services etc.
