Re: Trying to install windows vista 32 bit

Have you tried going into the bios and setting the boot order to the cd-rom only?

Re: Trying to install windows vista 32 bit

thanks I looked at the asus looks ok but from what I have been reading is a lot of problems with the boards from all kinds. I was looking at the MSI K9A2 Platinum board.
It may look better and stable to run. The reviews are better. http://www.msicomputer.com/product/p...tinum&class=mb
any thoughts thanks for any info I think.
