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.....
