    I assume the command will work either way. I was just taught the other way. Obviously, it doesn't make any difference.

    AddRam was asking who is the manufacturer of the hard drive. Is it a Seagate, Western Digital or what brand.

    That will help out if Windows Vista actually booted lol. Is there another way?
