HDD Installation VISTA Understood or Practiced!!

After formatting the C drive, copy the bootmgr and boot folders from the installation disk to the C drive, and create a new sources folder on the C drive.

Copy the contents directory of the installation disk to c: sources, run cmd, open the command line, and run c: boot nt60 c:

Rebooting is the same as booting a disc.

Be careful, don't click "Install Now"; Tap "Repair My Computer" in the bottom left corner. Go to "System Recovery Options" and select the last item "Command Prompt" to enter DOS Window 6. Run the following commands c:, sequentially, under dos

boot\ /nt52 c: attrib -r -h -s c:\bootmgr del c:

bootmgr rd s q c: boot rd s q c: sources After running the above commands, enter [your installation file path] sources and press enter.

This is the official start of installing Vista.

One. The drive letter for the Vista disc does not have to be NTFS, FAT32 is fine.

Second, PE is unable to install Vista This I also tried.

Also, be sure to turn off security software such as anti-virus software, third-party firewalls, and UAC when upgrading! If you have installed the restoration software, you must uninstall it first! Remember!!

No problem, just do it! When Peli setup, the Vista file and boot file have been copied to the C drive, and when you restart, you will boot directly to start installing Vista. It is recommended that it is better to make a disc or USB flash drive PE system

I don't understand why you want to install it like that.,When I install the U version,Install it directly from the installation disk.,When the disk is thrown in,Boot from cd,There's formatting those.,The format becomes NTFS.,Install it!

After the restart, the necessary files for Vista installation (including the built-in PE used for Vista installation) are in the C drive, and the reboot will automatically enter the later stage of Vista installation.

1.About Unable to Onboard User Profiles.

In the case of a system, the hard disk partition is adjusted, it is likely to damage the system files, I used to use partionmagic to pick the system disk size under xp, and the result is that all the Chinese characters of the system have become ???

In this case, you can delete your own user, log in with administrator, and the system will load the default configuration.

If you are using admin to log in, try using the ASR function of the installation disk to fix it.

2.If you adjust the drive letter inside the system, the system will change the path itself (disk manager is very powerful), but you use XP to modify the drive letter. If I'm not mistaken, it's done on the XP installation screen, so Vista won't recognize it.

The main culprit for this phenomenon is the 5GB blank you leave behind.

In the eyes of the partitioning software, the whitespace is concatenated and arranged after all the logical partitions (although you think that the blank space you leave is between C:D:), so you cause the drive letter to be inverted in the process of deleting the rebuilt partition, which is fine under XP, but the actual MTF has changed.

At this point, you can open the file in the system boot menu, I can't remember clearly, it seems to be), you can see multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(1)partition(1) and other statements, and the partion(1) of the above table is the real order of the logical partitions, not the relative drive letter modified by the system.

Vista's boot mechanism is slightly different from the NT series system, NTLDR has been upgraded, so despite the reverted boot menu, the rear low-level version of the XP itself is a hard flaw. The easiest solution in this case is to delete Vista and reinstall it.

If it is troublesome to reinstall, then it is more troublesome to re-establish the user and manually modify the path.

Specifically, you have to use a disk manager, but it is undoubtedly a palliative rather than a cure.

These are all things I typed by hand, because I don't know if the reason for the failure of your vista configuration file is the drive letter change, and I can't make more effective suggestions, I can only provide you with a little reference, I hope it will help you.

Change the drive letter under Vista, Disk Management.

Try using the partition magician under win.
