Hardware Configuration
I first attempted to install Vista on my home desktop purchased in 2002. See the image below for specs.
Installation Disk
Downloaded from Microsoft and utilized supplied key once I was registered.
Initial Impressions
- Eager to run some quick test scenarios on the new OS.
- Liked what I had seen about the UI, and the "new" features incorporated.
- Had read differing views as to Vista's success but wanted to evaluate for myself.
- As a loyal Windows user from Win98 and on I assumed I would join up with Vista.
Difficulties
Searching for a Solution
Searching for the error I tracked people in a similar situations, and the same solution came up again and again: "Buy a new DVD drive!". Could they be serious? Just to install Vista I would need a new drive, that is insanity!
