G1S - Problem concerning Driver CD

I received a G1S last week and went to do a clean install of vista. Vista installed fine, and then prompted for the driver CD to be inserted, etc. After the driver cd was finished installing, I would be prompted with some message along the lines of "windows installation not complete, please reinstall" or something to that nature. I reinstalled windows and chose not to load the drivers from the CD, and now my laptop works fine.

My question however is this - I recall seeing a post last week about this same situation but I don't recall what the solution/answer was. Does anyone know if I probably just installed wrong or if I have a bad driver CD? I'd like to make sure to get a new driver CD just for ease of installation,if indeed the CD was the problem.

Thanks in advance for any help

 

Honestly I would suggest not using the driver CD along with your Vista installation. I personally found it created a slowdown in the system, which didn't go away completely once I uninstalled all the junk included (Norton, etc).

I can't tell you whether your driver CD is defective or not though. But personally I only use it to install certain drivers manually. I think you've already done this but, during the installation with the Recovery DVD if you restart the system when it asks for the driver CD it will give you a clean install. Then you can install the drivers you need, and the program you want.
