    I have been trying for ages to get vista on my Asus W3J. I tried beta 2, RC1, RC2, but everytime the installation get into a reboot loop when it says "press any key....".


    I have seen that some people believe that is is a bios issue. If so, does anyone know how I can get around this problem.

    I did find a post with a link to get vista on a W3J, but it is in Dutch, the link is http://gathering.tweakers.net/forum/...ssages/1139759 . I have tried using several translators, but none of them can translate is accurately enough to understand it.

    I would really appreciate it if someone could help.

    Thanks

    why not just leave the laptop at the "press any key" screen. Maybe if you press any screen, the laptop boots up from the disc again...
