Videomate Vista E850F Can't boot windows
Hi,
I just bought a Videomate Vista E850F, when I insert it I can no longer boot windows. I get to selecting my OS, and selecting safe mode etc since I don't shutdown properly, then when it should show the loading bar, for vista the simple green one, nothing happens and its just blank and stays that way until I turn it off. I can boot absolutely fine as soon as I take it out and can boot Ubuntu with it in, I'd diagnose the problem from there but I don't know my way around Linux enough to be able to really.
I'm going to install 64-bit Vista soon, to support my 4Gb RAM, but I can't really see that this would help.
I've searched for anyone with a similar problem and tried to email support at compro but the email address is unreachable, so I'm posting in a few forums before I just send it back.
Can anyone offer any help or advice?
My Spec:
Intel Core2 Duo 2.66Ghz w/Blue Orb
4Gb DDR2 PC2 6400 OCZ Platinum
Nvidia 7900 GTX
P5W DH Deluxe
74Gb WDC Raptor / 500Gb WDC / 320Gb WDC / 80Gb
2x Liteon DVD/RW
2x HannsG 19" Widescreen
Zboard USB Keyboard
Razer Diamondback USB Mouse
Black Thermaltake Kandalf
Thermaltake TR2-500w PSU
Windows Vista Business 32-bit SP1 (Soon to be 64-bit)

As per a question in another forum, I did try it in another slot and got the same result.
