I had XP on this machine previously everything was fine till somehow I got a load of malware , so decided to do a fresh reinstall and go with Vista.

Motherboard is a GA-965P-DS3P , the OS is installed on the Jmicron RAID controller with 2 disks in Raid 0 - I had to load the drivers for these during Vista install.

I tried to do Windows update and it froze towards the end, now when I get into Vista it'll quickly lock up for a few minutes - any ideas what could be causing this?

No settings have been changed at all , everything running at stock.
 
Everything seemed fine on install - I haven't touched the BIOS in a long time - will check RAM voltage there shortly.

Full spec :
GA-965P-DS3P
E6300
8800 GTS
2GB RAM (not sure which exactly!)
2 x WD 320GB on Raid 0
2 x Other assorted SATA HDDs
