    NT does not Start

    I am finding that I need to do an install and select the repair option every time I shutdown and restart NT.

    As of this evening, I did a fresh install with the latest build.

    Windows Update does not report the need to download anything that relates to the issue.

    Even if I run it for just a couple of minutes, I have the issue. I see nothing in the task manager that relates to NT - running.

    Sorry we would not know what causes this. May be you could try on a different machine.

      I have no other machine with Vista. This is the 2nd machine I have tried to install it on. I will remove it and clean the registry and try a fresh install.


      Thank you,
      Don

        Sounds great. Also: please make sure you have .NET 2.0 installed.

          I used regedit, removed everything related to NT, did a fresh install, updated and checked for all Vista software updates (net 2.0 was installed already).

          Same issue.

              I thought I posted an update ...but I did not see it.

              I installed NT in a Win2k machine (I know it is not to be run on Win2k).

              It started and restarted each time I tried it.

              The computer I am having problems with is an HP, Vista Premium - about 3 months old.

                Odd... is this by chance a Vista64 bit machine?

                    And today it started on the Vista machine a number of times... not having made any changes.

                    Maybe it was the sledgehammer I placed on the case?

                      And today it would not start. No start even after reinstalling NT.

                      Would you recommend XP over Vista?

                      Thanks

                        NT runs on both.
