First Install Attempt
You've seen the specs on my Rig - should be plenty Vista Capable
I had a second SATA 120GB drive, so we'll give that a try:
Reboot the system with the DVD in the drive...
Press any key to boot from this DVD (like XP)
It loads into a selection of:
Vista x86 (32bit) -already highlighted
Vista x64 (64bit)
I hit enter and wait for about 1 minute
It loads into a VERY pretty GUI - Slick, Slick, Slick
Click to install Vista on this PC or Learn more
I click the insrall
It comes up with upgrade greyed out
Custom is highlighted, so we proceed that way...
It see my osx drive and the one I want to use for this experiment
I choose the spare drive
Windows cannot find a drive meeting its requirements to install
So I go advanced, blow away the partitions, set them up from scratch, format NTFS -
NO GO.....
