Default Vista installation fails


bI had to reinstall Vista Ultimate 32Bit on my Asus P5wd2 Premium MB.
Although the installation went fine the first time, after reinstalling I
cannot read anything on the screen. Everything on the sceen is scramled up. I
CAN run Windows XP on the computer, NO problem but I cannot install Vista and
have a readable display.
Any suggetsions? Thanks very much!
Tomas

Why did you originally have to re-install Vista? Is the screen scrambled in
Safe Mode? If not, make sure your video driver is the latest version for
Vista. Have you tried starting over (format the drive and install Vista
again)? Is this a laptop or desktop? What is the make/model?

Hi Tomas

1) Is this a dual boot? 2) Did you upgrade to Vista from a prior OS? 3) Why
did you have to reinstall it--I'm betting with all due respect whatever
problem you had could have been fixed had you posted for help here.

4) What does this mean: " I can't read anything on the screen; everything
is scrambled." Do you have any word message at all? Exactly what are you
seeing on that screen?

I assume you've carefully cleaned the Vista DVD.
