    For some reason on my Lenovo Thinkpad t61p, it wont boot up the vista upgrade dvd. i start booting up, then it says that 'windows is loading files' and then windows looks like its booting up, with the green status bar, then all of a sudden my screen goes blank and it hangs. Ive tried changing the boot priority and checking my ram with memtest86+ but to no avail. any suggestions?
