Just upgraded me old setup (in sig) to...

DFI M2RS 790FX
AMD 9850 Black Edition
2x HIS 3870

And did a fresh install of Vista. Formatted the drive, ran through the whole install. Then it restarts and does a performance check of the system and lets me log in.

Then it restarts once again before hitting the desktop and now it don't make it past:

Booting 'Windows Vista'

acpi
Vista Loader 2.1.2

I don't understand, it ran through the whole install, made it to login screen after a reboot and now I can't even make it to the option to boot in safemode.

Grabbed my GF's HDD with XP installed on it, tossed it into my comp and it fired right up... And she has a el cheapo chipset on her Asus M2V-MX mobo and still fired up fine on the 790FX board.
