installation issues

I downloaded the ISO image from microsoft and used the VCdControl tool to virtually mount the ISO image as a drive. I run setup, enter in the product key and I get a Windows Installation and Setup Screen error, appname=setup.exe modname=kernel32.dll Has anyone encountered this issue and resolved it? I did run the windows upgrade advisor, its a brand new workstation. Thanks

Maybe that application is not supported, have you tried another method, such as copying the contents of the ISO to a network share then launch setup? -- -- Andre Windows Connected | http://www.windowsconnected.com Extended64 | http://www.extended64.com Blog | http://www.extended64.com/blogs/andre http://spaces.msn.com/members/adacosta

Yeah I have, I have the full vista install on my local test machine that I am running setup from.. Is there another way to install it if I am not able to burn to a DVD or mounting it is not working?

Hi having a bit of a problem trying to install the latest vista build 5384.4 32bit version
My specs: Asus P4R800-V deluxe motherboard Pentium 4 3.4GHZ CPU hyperthreading is on 1 gig RAM ATI X800 video card 300 gig western digital hard drive
When I try to boot to dvd to install vista it appears that files are loading and then you get the moving bar screen after that my screen goes black and doesn't change. Looking at the computer I see no hard drive activity leds or dvd-rom drive leds on. They are not doing there normal thing when everything works like it should. I have left it sitting there for an hour to see if anything started working and nothing happens. Am I to accept that my specs aren't compatable and I need to upgrade? Or is this a known bug with vista?

Have you tried creating a partition and launching setup from within, say... Windows XP, select the partition and install? Also, are there any unnecessary devices attached to the system when you boot from the DVD? Its possible Vista is trying to detect these devices, remove them and reattempt the install. -- -- Andre Windows Connected | http://www.windowsconnected.com Extended64 | http://www.extended64.com Blog | http://www.extended64.com/blogs/andre http://spaces.msn.com/members/adacosta

OK, the Visata Advisor did not indicate two items that were critical in my choice to purchase the DVD. One, Adobe Elements was not identified as not working on Vista. Second, the Motorola USB ICP Device was not listed by the advisor.
Elements I can sidestep. But the ICP Device will not allow Vista to load. Anyone know how to remedy either item?

Wait for either motorola to update drivers or vista to get support for that device. -- Try, learn, experience.
