Hi!

the An7 has a silicon Sata controller, and its not recognized by Vista RC1,
Nvidia offers no beta drivers for the nforce 2, and Silicon has a beta but
it doesn't work

Anyhelp will be much appreciated!

IIRC the workaround is to install the Vista compatible driver onto your
working WindowsXP setup, and then, once that is installed, commence Vista
setup from inside XP.

Although, to be honest, the best piece of advice I can give you is probably
not to waste your time on "RC1", unless you have the time and a spare
machine, as frankly it's a buggy, incomplete bag of ***. If this really is
a release candidate, Microsoft have serious problems.

Gee, how do you really feel? ;)

I've been waiting to sign up for the official "Customer Preview Program"
but if its that bad, maybe I'll hold off until the final build is out.
What are some problems with it?
