1287328 2012-07-09 23:46:00 Did you load it from DVD (Windows 7) or USB or what ??????? Nhashon (16466)

1287330 2012-07-09 23:50:00 Try this - Hope it helps -

Step 1:
Since you are able to boot into safe mode. I would suggest you to do a clean boot from safe mode.
Clean Boot will help you start your computer by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs so that you can determine whether a background program or any of the third party service is interfering with your program.
To perform clean boot in, please follow the steps below.
1. Click Start on your Desktop
2. Type msconfig in the Start Search box and then press ENTER.
If you are prompted for an administrator password or for a confirmation, type the password, or click Continue.
3. On the General tab, click Selective Startup.
4. Under Selective Startup, click to clear the Load Startup Items check box.
5. Click the Services tab, click to select the Hide All Microsoft Services check box, and then click Disable All.
6. Click OK.
7. When you are prompted, click Restart.
To return your computer back to normal boot:
1. Click Start on your Desktop
2. Type msconfig in the Start Search box and then press ENTER.
If you are prompted for an administrator password or for a confirmation, type the password, or click Continue.
3. Click the General tab.
4. Click Normal Startup - load all device drivers and services, and then click OK.
5. When you are prompted, click Restart to restart the computer.
For information on using “Clean Boot”, see the following Microsoft Article:
support.microsoft.com
Step 2:
Once you finish with the clean boot from safe mode, you can try to boot in normal mode. If that doesn’t help then you can do a system restore.
To perform system restore please refer to the below link:
windows.microsoft.com
Step 3:
You can also run a virus scan as well on your computer to check if your computer is infected. Please follow the below links:

- MAKE SURE U DO A VIRUS SCAN AT END

Last time I had that with Vista it was caused by a bad install. On the second install it had similar problems, Third time used a different DVD and it went in perfectly.:2cents:

Edited: try running the following "fixit" from microsoft blogs.technet.com Click where it says KB Article to get the actual fixit, then again could just be a corrupted install as I had
