It's new laptop and just was running installation (Home Vista Premium), then
suddenly a error message "the computer restarted unexpectedly or encountered
an unexpected error. Windows installation cannot proceed. To install windows,
click "OK" or restart the computer, and then restart the installation". But
no matter what I've tried, that message appears again. Has anyone encountered
the same problem? Could anyone please help? I bought it overseas, costly to
send it back. Thanks in advance.

If it is a new laptop, what Operating System did it come with?
They come pre-installed!

If it's a new laptop, the proper response is to return it to the place of
purchase or to the manufacturer for repair or warranty work.

New laptops don't require an installation of an operating system.
Whatever the OP is doing probably has nullified any warranty.

Wow...

not a terribly coherent question===>

but the screen with all zeros on it is significant


The problem is very likely to be with the video card.

Since you guys don't know how to deal with that...
take it in to the shop...

don't take it to one of those rip-off places though
such as Geek-Squad

Not every BIOS provides that capability.
