Unaltered there is no reason why the recovery disc we have supplied would not install onto the drive that we have supplied, whether the hidden partition was there or not.

And yet it does not - The hidden disk is still present. At this point I have made basically made no changes to the machine.


I have tried a number of times to reinstall Vista and the DVD always hangs before the first GUI screen. The DVD disk itself is not corrupt it will install in a VM no problem


All I want to do is reinstall a clean copy of Vista using the the Mesh supplied VISTA install disk onto the MESH hardware. This should be easy and take 30 minutes.


From my research my problem is probably due to the Jmicron STA controller. Hard to bypass as that is what my disk are connected to.



How do mesh install vista on the hardware supplied. A vista disk that will not install is rather pointless.
