I run WinXp 32bit OS. Now I want to install vista. After I insert DVD and boot it. It gathers the system information. Just after that it gives message that winload.exe is corrupt or missing.
As others suggested I cannot repair anything here...

Why would you want to switch to Vista? Are you booting to the Vista CD? Are you sure that there are Vista drivers for all your hardware devices?
