Well, nowadays, whenever I boot into vista, I get the BSOD (im on xp atm)
Before it happened My capture card stopped working on vista (dont know why)
So i started it up in safe mode, it was fine deleted drivers for the capturecard and uninstalled it from the pc (not hardware wise) and restarted, and it still bsod'd so i started up in safe mode with networking and downloaded sp1 for vista, when it came to restarting it bsod'd but then, i started in safe mode once and let it work on its updating, and then next time it restarted it didnt bsod, then I could run vista, But later on I wanted to play a game that I only had installed on Xp, so i rebooted into xp, later on wanted to use vista for a different game, and it Bsod's Any suggestions?

Try doing a system restore, I was having a few problems, and that fixed them for me.

If you don't know how to do so, here's a list of instructions :

Go to the start button, then Control Panel, then select the option "Back up your computer" underneath System and Maintenance. Then, go to "Use System Restore to fix problems and undo changes to Windows." Then, choose "choose a different restore point", and click "Next". Then, choose the restore point that you want, probably one before the BSOD started happening, then choose next.
