I have found the same problem and have gotten around it. You need to
disable your USB drives/card reader during the installation and
possibly whenever you run Vista. I have found that if my USB card
reader is turned on during install, the install gets confused (I think
this is what's going on) about where it's data source is.

Also, once installed, and after drivers are all loaded, on a reboot it
gets confused about which drive to boot from and comes up to a black
screen just as you described.

So... the fix I've found is to go into the BIOS and turn off the USB
before installing. If you are installing on the C: partition (first
partition of first drive) you should be able to re-enable the bios and
run fine after the installation. If you are not installing Vista on
the first partition of the first drive, then there is a good chance
that you will not be able to boot Vista successfully with the USB
enabled.
