"and are you trying to install Vista/SP1 or just plain Vista? At least slipstream it to SP1 and give it a shot." you quoted me where i said.. i am using a 64 bit windows xp disc. so why are you still asking me about vista? i said im going to use xp so i dont run into problems with it being vista. im not saying its the board. but im not saying it isnt either. im just saying there could be some bios setting or something im missing. the disc is VERIFIED to work. telling me its the disc having errors. when ive repeatedly said it worked and when i already tried it on another computer and it worked doesnt make it the disc that doesnt work.
cpu cant stop it.
ram cant stop it. i tried all the one stick configurations.
tried taking usb devices out
flashing bios has been done.
using sata drives.
os drive is in sata 1
ide drive that can read the disc
so it goes to the motherboard, it should be letting the 64 bit os boot but it wont. the motherboard is the only hardware that has its own like settings/software which is the bios....
im not saying the motherboard is broken or its not good. i just would like a 64 bit operating system to work. is that so much to ask...
sorry for the long post.
sorry for getting on the wrong sides of people.
