Re: Installation BSOD STOP 5C -

Nigel,

I have an ECS RC410L/800M, and received the same message while trying
to install Vista. I have swapped out memory, hard drives, flashed the
BIOS, and even swapped motherboards (it was the same model, though).
All of these items were new. Apparently, the BIOS upgrade addressed a
few early issues, except Vista compatibility. I tried every possible
BIOS setting change, with no luck.

Unless ECS comes up with another BIOS flash, I guess the answer will be
to switch to another motherboard, or go with XP.

Joe

Go with XP Pro.... VISTA doesn't let you change out much of anything
without barking up some sort of trash.
