    I was thinking of compiling a list of W3J configurations.. BIOS version.. and place of origin to determine why some of us are able to install Vista on their W3Js and some aren't.

    Just state what is needed below and tell whether you are able to install Vista without the bootloader hack. Thanks for those contributing. This will help clear things up or not.. because this is all we (those unable to install without bootloader) have until ASUS brings out a new bios.


    Username>CPU version>Bios Version>Place of Origin>TPM option In bios
