My Vista install just seems ot be hanging on the cOmpleting Installaiton section - the green bar has not progressed in 20 mins but the little dots are sitll moving.

Second time It has done this and I even set motherboard to no overclock to check if it was that - no joy though.

Anyone got any ideas?

yup it is pit slow with all the screens up front - most of the copy was quick then it jjust hung there - I am trying over now.

The bit where it hangs is after the first reboot well I think I will give it 30 or 40 mins and just see - trouble is no error messages.

It also recognises my RAID array fine so dont see how it could be that *sighs*

got some updated drivers so if this one fails after a while will try them - failing that then its try without raid time - sighs....
 
great downloaded nvidia update now it is blue screen of deathing *sighs*

safe mode and last knowngood mode dont work - complete new install coming up I suppose!
 
Well that was painful but all working now :-) just downloaded some beta 8800 drivers from 3dguru so lets see how they do.
 
just fried the os turning the overclocked settings back on ..... repair works fine though - looks like I will have to start working out what I can get away with ocing now then *sighs* this new OS laugh is not easy is it!
