I have an Nvidia 680i SLI motherboard. I installed my HP DC195A Serial & Parallel PCI Card into one of two PCI slots and booted my computer. The BIOS booted, but Vista did not. I hanged during a state, I think called Verifying DMI Pool Data or something. I tried switching slots, but the OS would still not boot. I want to use the card, but need to know what I'm doing wrong and how to resolve this issue.

- This is outrageous then! I purchased the card on eBay (yes, I know, I shouldn't complain about anything when purchasing anything from here), and here's the item description: HP DC195A Serial & Parallel PCI Card Oxford Chip Vista. Of course, in the description, the seller states that there are Vista compatible drivers, but only drivers. I'm trying to get in contact with the seller to see what he/she says. Thank you for this quick solution!
Windows vista is not included in product min OS requirements technical details. That may be the problem.
