Can't boot Vista Help!!!!

Hello Everyone

I have an Asus M2n32 WS Pro with the lateest bios 1301 2Gb ocz DDR2 800
platinum an adaptec 39320 HDA ATI X1600Pro
2x SCSI 73gb drives 1x 80gb sata drive and a 320GB SATA drive and a Dvico
TV tuner card and 2 SATA DVD drives plextor and ASUS

I tried to install on the 80GB SATA drive and got as far as it rebooting and
the first error I got related to tcpip.sys when it rebooted
I got another error and everytime it is a different error so I thought ok
I'll reformat the hard drive again nothing changed.
I also ran the memory test programm and it passed OK
I don't understand I had windows X64 installed on this drive and it worked
the only thing that has changed I updated the bios and
it still boots X64 and XP pro on the other two SCSI drives Is there a
problem with SATA?


Comments please and thanks

Did you let it detect the sata Base driver and second driver for the disk
during set-up?
Create a diskette (or USB stick) ewith the drivers in the root and let Vista
detect the controller (base driver) and again the HD drivers during install
(select advanced from setup to load drivers) .

It installed files ( all about 8.95Gb) onto the hard drive and when it
rebooted it fell in a heap

Unfortunately, yes. The installer apparently has a problem installing
to a SATA drive when there are other drives in the machine. The
workaround is to simply disconnect the other drives when doing the
install, and reconnect them later (they should then work).

Caveat: the advice above seems to help people with 32-bit machines. I
have no knowledge or experience with 64-bit machines, but it's worth a
try, anyway. Please let us know if it works for you.

Does it work if you disable the SCSI controller?
It might be the same problem other people have with mixed PATA and SATA
drive's, disconnecting the other drives cured the problem for them, maybe a
solution?
