I reckon your Vista "virus" was probably a hardware problem, maybe memory, which is still giving you problems.

Is this a machine you built yourself or something like a Dell? Did you
reinstall using the Dell (or other manufacturer) method or do you have a
retail Vista DVD?

If you have a retail version there may be some drivers for the
motherboard missing or wrong, that by itself could possible explain why
you are not getting anywhere. If you built the machine yourself and you
have CDs that came with the motherboard you need to format the drive and
reinstall the CD stuff before trying Vista.

If you read Dave's post then maybe you could try testing the RAM before
ever starting with Vista. You will need to be able to burn a CD to do
that. Can you use another machine to do that?

Also if you can, make sure all Memory sticks and cards are securely
installed in the case.

im going to try the memory test, all my drivers for the motherboar
work, ive installed vista previously and it worked fine, but i believ
it is hardware, i put my old 2x512 sticks of ddr2 ram back in, and s
far no errors have appeared, and vista is staying activated, im goin
to run the memory test with the other ram in and see what it says

but yes i have retail vista home premium, bought it from bestbuy, bu
this one works fine, and ill burn the cd in a min, and reply with th
results later o

no memory problems, it all came up clean, but i put my old ram in, and
the install went flawless, but i got stop error 0x0000050 on my first
boot, 2nd boot started, and so far ive been good, windows was
activated, and im starting the updates dling

well um, it worked fine for a while, it updated till update 41/60, and
then windows modules installer stopped working, and then windows
licensing software stopped working

and now my windows is validated, but i cannot install any updates, i
also cannot even install vista sp1

it throws out a error
which is 0x0800736CC
