My problem started when I got a new motherboard, a P965 by MSI

When I finally got everything hooked up, once it started loading Vista (or maybe during/after) , it immedeatly restarted. I managed to turn off Automatic restart, and then it gave me a BSOD with the STOP error 0x00000024.

So, I look online for a solution, and found that I could probably fix it with my Vista DVD. So, I hook up my DVD drive, insert the Vista DVD and run it. As soon as the progress bar on the bottom of the screen finiished, it immedeatly crashed again.

I'm not sure what to do.

Maybe my video card has an issue and wont display anything requiring work.

...or not.

It might be your video card. What are your system's specs?

Ehh, it turns out my HDD reverted to RAW, but I stil cant run Vista Installation, so I can switch Drives. If all else fails I'll just use one of the computers at work to install it or something...

The Vid Card is an ATI 1550 GT
I have 1G of RAM
2.88GHz Processor
