I recently upgraded from a single core AMD 3800+ to a X2 6000+ and now my wonderful Vista Ultimate x64 doesn't like me, BSOD as boots into windows everytime, I can get into safe mode and I can boot into XP without issues. Has anyone else had this issue, is there any way around it aside from a fresh install... this will be the 3rd or 4th time I've had to reinstall it becase it decided to die(no boot into Vista), or BSOD anymore or whatever. please tell me there is an easy fix for this, aside from trashing my only x64 OS... I need my RAM :(

so I'm dumb and VERY tired, I just saw windows didn't notice the OS page like 3 down... I'll try to post there as well, sorry please don't yell at me. the stoopid fourms wont let me delete my thread... :( again


Since your duplicate thread in Operating Systems is getting some action, I'll lock this one, and people with suggestions can post over there. :)
