→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!
There was absolutely no chance I would buy a new dvd drive to install a release candadate of Windows Vista. In fact I would be extremely hard pressed to buy a new drive for the finished release especially considering how much purchasing Vista itself would cost.
At this point I gave up on Vista and place my shiny new "Vista Coaster" on my desk.
==The End?==
New reports are emerging that approximately 19-20,000 drivers will be included on the installation dvd. If this is indeed the case I must assume that drivers for a standard dvd drive will be included in this package. With Vista having a system that is "Vista-capable", "Vista-compatable" or "Vista-fantastical" can mean any number of things, but what it truly means won't be clear for another few months.
