Windows Vista Ultimate frustrating setup problem

Posted: 02-20-2007, 04:02 PM
I've tried three times to install Vista Ultimate. It seems to go well to the
very end, then, when it should boot Vista, I get a blue screen error message,
and the system continualy reboots. Error message is:

***STOP: 0x0000007E (0X0000005, 0X81836F72, 0X8246AA68, 0X8246A764)

My machine is very stable under XP Pro SP2, and I have the latest XP drivers
for my hardware. According to the provided tools, I should not have problems
using Vista on my rig. The machine details are as follows:

Power supply 470W Silent
Motherboard Asus P4P800 Deluxe (Bios 19, Intel chipset 865 drivers are the
latest)
CPU Intel PIV 3.4Ghz Prescott 800Mhz bus HT
RAM 2 Gb 400Mhz (4x512)
Video GeForce 7600GS 256Mb AGPx8
Audio Creative Audigy SE
2x IDE 120 Gb NFTS
Primary disk SATA 250 Gb NFTS
DVD-ROM Samsung S616E
DVD-RW Philips 1648P1
Adaptec 2940AU SCSI card

Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

I had the same issues. I had to go to the drivers in each hardware installed
and upgrade to the VISTA version (luckily found all of them). The tried to
upgrade again and all went well. On my laptop had to resort to a clean
install.

I am running the p4p800se with one 320 gig drive ide, 2 nec dvd burners, 1
gig of ram, nvidia 6600gt.
I did a clean install of Ultimate and it's fine. It basically had every
driver I needed to run this board.
