Only versions of Alcohol with SPTD are supported in Vista. If you installed 1.9.5.3105 or any earlier version, IT WILL NOT WORK. Also, we only provide support for the current version, which is 1.9.6.4719 at present.
Yes, not only will it not work, but Vista will not even BOOT if you DO install the wrong version.
I think the people who *HAVE* made this mistake are aware that this version will not work with Vista, now they are looking for a way to fix their installation of windows with out having to completely reinstall windows Vista.
Since after installing this infamous 3105 version vista blue screened right away, and then it blue screens everytime you start up --- even in safe mode.
So using the info in this thread, I booted Vista business edition using my cd. When I got to the install screen, I selected the repair link at the bottom of the screen.
I then went into the command prompt and did c:\
Then I did
dir a347bus.sys /s
Which located the file @
c:\windows\system32\drivers\a347bus.sys
I then changed directories to cd c:\windows\system32\drivers and then renamed the a347bus.sys file (rename a347bus.sys blahblah.bad) and then I was able to boot windows.
It did give me some errors about needing to reinstall some software drivers etc etc, but it allowed me to get in, and uninstall alcohol and then it seems to boot correctly from here on out.
If this isn't helpfull enough then please give more information about your problem.
