RE: Windows Vista Installation
Those upgrades arent always succesful, i'd try searching for your exact error on google or something.

RE: Windows Vista Installation
I've yet to meet someone who's done a Upgrade installation and been happy with it. Registry errors and cryptic permissions crap always seems to make it far more trouble than it's worth.

Make a new partition and install to that. You'll have to reinstall everything anyway, may as well avoid catastrophic data loss at the same time.

RE: Windows Vista Installation
An xp/win7 or winvista dual boot would be a much better option. Thats what I did with my PC.
