    This is very frustrating. I just bought Vista Ultimate to get to the final step in the installation. Now it just sits at a blank screen for about 10 minutes and reboots. I am on a Dell XPS 700 with about 4gb of ram, and a pentium dual core processor 3.00GHz. I can't log into safe mode without getting

    "reboot into normal mode to complete the installation".

    So what DO I do? BTW I upgraded from media center SP2.

    No, I haven't changed my computer before I did this.
