Vista Beta 2 install question

Sebass · Feb 18, 2006

I just resized my partition to create about 25 GB on my HDD to install Vista Beta 2...

Well it starts installing and then resets the computer after getting to a certain point...then it gets to the Windows Codename Longhorn graphic with the status bar and as soon as it's done it keeps resetting the computer...it has done this about 10 times now...

it's booting back to xp fine and I tried restarting the install process but it's doing it again...

It just gets to the load screen for Vista install and won't get any further...it's just resetting...

Any suggestions?

I think I figured it out...had to boot from DVD...can't install it at all from the Windows...will let everyone know if that works!

It worked...the new Windows is very interesting...think they got a good thing going here...the new IE is pretty nice...still messing with it all though...

Are you an official MS beta tester?

I am closing this here. As a beta tester for Microsoft myself, you should have access to channels to assist you. Any posting of such information would be considered a violation of your NDA, so either way, this is closed.
