I doubt anyone knows how to fix this, or what it means, but I recently installed Vista on the computer I built and had stable months ago, but as soon as I installed Vista, which is probably the problem, I reset the computer as instructed, I ran into huge trouble.

I wish I had time to go into further detail, but basically when it does the detecting PCI **** (after the boot screen) The entire list looks good, except that a memory controller gives me a weird vendor number, instead of 10DE like all the others, it says 10D. Not sure if it's related. After that it does the "verifying pool" thing, and gives me this:

┤Bè▄$┤Bè▄$

And freezes. WHAT DOES THIS MEAN!? PLEASE BE PROMPT!!

EDIT: Memory Controller NOT the problem, I removed 2 gigs of bad RAM and fixed that, still egtting weird message!

My basic build:
EVGA 780i Mobo
500g Sata HD
40g IDE HD
2gig 800 RAM
EVGA 8600 series Graphics Card
Core 2 Duo

That's about it PLEASE RESPOND QUICK!
 
have you tried to reset the bios, just remove the sliver battery on the motherboard and leave it out for like 30 sec. (make sure you unplug your comp first)
 
You are a genius, I love you in a totally non-gay brotherly way. Thank you. (So simple too lol, apparently resetting defaults isnt good enough.)
