Exclamation Please Anyone HELP!!! Micorsoft Vista Problem

Well being the glutten for punishment that i am and not being able to resist new things i just bought myself a copy of windows vista home premium upgrade. I tried to install and all went really well until it said completing installation. It got to about 30% and then a dreaded blue screen crash!!

The computer rebooted and vista installetion informed me that it had failed the installation and would restore my windows to it's previous state. This it seemd to do, but now when i start the pc up it gives me two choices start with an earlier version of windows (this allows me to start windows xp) or windows rollback which does nothing apart form sit there with the vista screen. I have tried every way to install it again but it just seems that it won't have it and now crashes on copying installation files!!

So i thoguht what i would do is reinstall my wind xp media centre edition on my computer and format the drive at the same time. So i duly went throught the process, but when i slected f6 to specify aditinal devices it took the first driver on the floppy no problems at all, but the second driver nvatabus.sys it said was corrupt. Obviously then if itried to continue it would not recognise my RAID setup and failed the install.

So after al that long winded bable my questions are?

1. Can i get rid of the bit that is prompting me to selct one item or the other at startuip and if so where will that little devil be hiding?

2. How can i get the driver for the floppy. Have tried copying the driver from the drivers folder in windows but when i put the floppy in it doesn't even recognise it being on the disc so i assume it is in an installation package. Have looked on the vendors website but can make no head nor tail of which one i need and they all seem to be in excess of 10mb which won't fit on a floppy and the floppy option is the only option i have when trying to install.
The motherboard is winfast NF4SK8AA the driver discs have on them www.foxconnchannel.com


the machine is only a year old and is an amd 64 4200 dual

Cheers for reading this bable and for any help
