While I am assuming you had not put the gfx card in yet, I usually try to avoid doing any more than one upgrade at a time. Particularly OS + hardware. Anyway, I hope it works out for you :) And yeah, computers can be mean mistresses sometimes, but I still love them lol

I can't get vista or win 7 installed on my computer either :( and it's only 2 years old, so shouldn't be that big problem. I first thought my HD was about to fail and replaced it, but still no better. Next up is trying to replace the memory. If that doesn't work either I'll have to put together a new computer.

Heh, my computer installed Win7 in 1 try in about 20 minutes.

But, that's not to say I havn't had PLENTY of other problems before with other PC's and stuff. They can be complete pains at times, for sure.

Just go straight for Windows 7. If it doesn't like Vista, it will like 7.
