black screen after restart

[Raini Graf]

After the second restart the installation just seems to hang. I don't
even get the logo showing - the screen remains black - numlock key still
works so my pc still runs.

The curios part is that i've successfully installed vista on the same pc
until the last February CTP.

Build 5381 on an nforce2 mobo, video card is ati radeon 9800 xt.
Is this a vista-driver related problem?
Any workaround ?

Thanks for your help

I got that on the 5365 build - in vmware - perhaps somethings buggered?

I had this, just left it for ages and it sorted itself out.

Let it try again.

(Build 5342 here)

I had the same problem turned out to be a prob with having 2 GeForce 6800GS
graphic cards in SLI. Had to disable SLI in the BIOS before I could boot
into Vista.

Any estimate of what "ages" might mean? Was it more than 30 minutes
('cos that's about as long as I gave it)?
