You experience the following symptoms after you unsuccessfully try to install Windows Vista on a separate partition on a Windows-based computer:

• The computer cannot start the earlier version of Windows.
• The computer continuously restarts.

This problem occurs if the following conditions are true:

• The computer is running a version of Windows that is earlier than Windows Vista.
• You try to create a dual-boot system by installing Windows Vista to a different partition than the partition where the earlier version of Windows is installed.
• An error occurs during the installation. Or, an error occurs after Windows Vista restarts for the first time. When this error occurs, the Windows Vista installer rolls back the changes that were made during the installation.
