"Out of Box Experience" in Build 5536 (Pre-RC1)

Posted: 08-29-2006, 08:10 PM
Hello,

I downloaded and tried to install vista pre-rc1 (5536) today.
i insert vista dvd while running win xp and started setup (new install
on clean partition, no upgrade).
after a few minutes i was prompt to restart. so i restarted.
the new vista boot menu was shown, and i selected "Windows Setup".
then after a few seconds with a black screen, my screen was painted
green and white (fading). no error, no message, no cursor,.. nothing!
only a painted screen! after 5 minutes of waiting in front of a white
screen, i restarted my system and select "Windows Setup" again. the same
problem.

i tried to reinstall but without success. i also tried to boot from
vista setup dvd, but also without success.

i've heard that this problem is called "out of box experience".

system:
- notebook acer travelmate 8101
- ati x700
