Hi Greg.
well I dont know for you but I would not install vista if i were you as there are a number of incompatibility issues that you will face, or that i guess that you are already facing with it. well if it is possible install another operating system that will leave you hassle-free. i can suggest windows vista or nt as substitute.

what motherboard are you using? It sounds like you have not enabled SATA in the bios.
