    So i have a W7S. i reformatted with vista ultimate 32bit... i was trying out what programs worked and what didn't and decided to try and install an old version of alcohol 120% i had (ver 1.9.2 build 1705) and while installation, i got a BSOD with the following error:

    0x0000007E (0xc0000005, 0x81c90722, 0x9EF4FA68, 0x9EF4F764)

    now i can't boot back into windows... whenever i try, i get the BSOD... safe mode does the same thing

    anyone can help?

    thanks.

    Boot up with the windows setup disk and try to repair the volume.

    as far as i know, alcohol isnt fully compatible with vista

    try looking for daemon tools, i think theres a new version thats compatible with vista and allows drive emulation

    I had the same problem with my G1s..so i had to take the few seconds that it takes to load windows to uninstall it before it BSODs again
