vista not install

The following error screen comes up following the system scan.
I've run the upgrade adviser software (beta), and it continually keeps saying that I can install ULTIMATE (recommended) and that no device drivers or hardware needs to be upgraded.
It shouldn't because I'm running the following: Intel 930 Dual Core 3.0 ghz processor 1GB DDR2 667mhz ram 80GB HD Video card with 128mb (ATI) New Motherboard with latest update Bios
Here is the error message:
"You must make the following changes before installing Windows Close Windows installation and contact the device manufacturer for updated driver software for these devices: Your computer is not compatible with Windows Vista, so Windows Vista cannot be installed. "
Anyone have any ideas? Thanks in advance

Hello Jerry, Are you booting from the DVD or trying to upgrade? If you are trying to upgrade what is the computer type listed in Device Manager? I suspect the error is trying to telling you the machine is not ACPI compliant which may mean that you have to update your bios. Do you have a \panther\setupact.log file? Is there more information in that log file on the error message? Thanks, Darrell Gorter[MSFT]

Also, to your question...I was running an UPGRADE from Windows
I've looked in the device manager, and it shows the computer being 'Standard'...so that is probably where the problem is.
I guess I'll boot from the DVD and do a clean install, as apparently I neglected to set the previous Windows installation to ACPI (thought I had, but apparently skipped it). The m/b is an ACPI board, and it has the latest Bios.
Probably a clean install will be better anyway, as there won't be any residual stuff left to slow things down.
Thanks for the response.

I was really looking forward to trying out Vista Beta 2. I downloaded it the day after it was released. I happened to have a brand new 250 GB hard drive on order from Newegg. When it arrived, I immediately started to setup Vista. I formated the new drive and I was ready to create a dual boot setup.
The first hurdle I came to was when I attempted to boot from the Vista DVD. Whenever I tried this, I would get a blue screen STOP error saying that I should remove any newly installed hardware, run a memory test, etc. Well, the only newly installed hardware is the new hard drive, which works fine. I did a memory test. First with the one that appearently comes with the Vista setup, and then MemTest86. My RAM is fine.
So, I tried running the install from XP. It took about five minutes to get to where I could actually do something. It seemed frozen. Eventually it started working. I entered all of the necessary info and got to the point where it was "Copying Files". It finished with that and moved onto "Expanding files". It was not long after that, that it rebooted for the first time, and in my case, the last. After rebooting, I got a screen with the Vista background, an hourglass, and the text, "Installing Windows". The mouse moved once in a while and the DVD drive was spinning up in seemingly regular intervals. I figured it was doing it's thing.
Well.... I came back an hour later and it was STILL on the same screen. It didn't seem to have done anything. I didn't want to take a chance at messing up the install so I just let it run. This was at about 8 PM. Later, at about 11 PM, something happened! the progress screen showed up and said it was expanding files! I thought, "oh, it should be done before too long". It's now 2 AM.... Still expanding files. I went to bed. I got up at 10 AM. Guess what.... STILL expanding files....
Needless to say, I restarted the PC and was greeted with the Vista boot menu giving me the option to rollback the Vista install or boot an earlier version of Windows. I chose to roll back and it did it's thing. I rebooted into XP and all was normal.
The first try was a no'go. It sat there for a total of 14 hours and got nowhere. The next day I tried again. I burned a new copy. I tried booting from the DVD, just in case, for some strange reason, it might work. Of course it didn't. I started the install from XP again. This time I did not feel like staring at it for hours on end. I went to bed. The next morning it was on the "Installing Windows" screen with the hour glass, nothing else. It didn't even get as far as before!
I can't say I'm not dissapointed. I want to try Vista, see what all the talk is about, and hopefuly provide some useful feedback. Does anyone have any idea why Vista won't boot from the DVD? The problem seems to stem from Vista booting without XP. Whenever Vista setup is running in XP it works fine but as soon as it ventures out on it's own, after the first reboot, it hangs. Any ideas?

Hello it seems I to cant boot from vista's dvd to reformat and clean install. I had XP Pro first. When I got the new vista I figure I put in the dvd and reboot thinking it will load and ask me to reformat my HD after I answered to Clean install. IT DID NOT!!
Fogetting how to reinstall I put in XP PRO from boot up reformatted the HD then switching to vista didnt work. I had to go all the way and reinstall XP PRO first then install VISTA. How on earth does one do a CLEAN INSTALL from vista dvd if the dvd isnt bootable?
I have Vista up and running now, got rid of the OLD windows file but want to redo vista as a clean install NOT from xp. IF you can find answers please forward them to me or at miketng@msn.com thanks

I was having a similar problem with it hanging at the first boot after the "expanding files" stage. I simply took the DVD out of the drive before the system rebooted and the installation proceeded normally. I hope this helps!
