Hi, I'm getting this error at first reboot.
I'm not able to finish the setup.
Has anyone encountered it?
If it is interesting I can provide all information form Vista disk (yep I'm using a dedicated disk to install.)
Error 0x0F at first reboot
boot back to previous os, search all partitions (may not be visible! -> diskmgmt.msc -> assign drive letter) for .log files. The interesting log files are 4 to 30 MB in size, sometimes at vista partitions windows\inf directory if the setup went that far. Submit these logs to microsoft using Beta Client.
You may need to change folder options to make hidden folders visible etc.

Two questions: 1) where do I find the beta client? (remember Vista does not boot) or how? 2) all this files?

1. google -> beta client click the first link. It needs .NET but I think it will be installed if you try to run it without it..
2. finding and identifying the correct logs
setupapi.app.log setupapi.dev.log
These are the primary setup logs, there are others but these are the major.
A:
There can be multiple logs with the same name, but they are different! First look at the drive you tried to install Vista to, if it has Vista Windows\INF\ directory and under it:
B:
If you can't find Windows VISTA directory (if setup did not get so far) then look all volumes/partitions in the drives that were on the machine during the install for directories starting with $. There are 2-4 of them (possibly in different partitions) depending on when the setup failed. Search for .log under all the *:\$WINDOWS.. and again look at the date/minute timestamp to see which of the logs was changed just before the failure occured.
See that the date and Minute timestamp of the log files are around the time when the setup failed, sometimes a setup/install failure causes the computer to automatically reboot and the setup will run again but failing in different way than the first time (making the bug report less useful). For best bug report it's better to catch the failure when it first happens. Yes it means starting the install all over again and keeping eye on it. But this will guarantee that the last line in the log will be around the time of the failure. If it is a driver crash then you can figure out the offending driver yourself just by looking at the last line of setupapi.dev.log.
