I think the problem is that Vista and I are locked into a battle of domme-y wills.
It thinks IT is the top in this relationship but hoooo-boy, is it mistaken. I have the gag. I have the whip. I have the power of C:> format /u

The Process 
“fucking Vista”?
Sounds like “fucking and not in the GOOD sense” to me. 😦
go on…tell them what you did to make it not work…
Ah…so there is more to the story…
This is why I just caved and bought a PC loaded with XP.
naw, dont format. Pop the vista cd in, boot to cd, reinstall WITHOUT formating. it will put the old os in a window.old folder, reload vista, then you can go into the windows.old folder and pull all your stuff into the new one and delete it later. You win totally, vista loses totally!!!
-I just had to do this myself- lost nothing doing it this way.
Good luck, hon!
