I recently tryed the manual install method listed above. The good thing is that it works perfectly but another problem has sprung up in the personlisation menu. The window just contains icons with no text or buttons. The icons can still be used to get to the desired menu but its still really annoying. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

You can "only" perform an "upgrade" from XP home SP2. Third time installing vista premium now so hopefully the "upgrade" from a "clean" install of Vista does work as it did for pat!!
