Vista won't work on dell optiplex sx280?

I just upgraded my pc after going in a pc shop, and the people there said I could update my dell optiplex sx280 computer which has windows xp, windows Vista. They said all I had to do was just to put the DVD in my computer and it will work from there...

So I put in, and the installation seems to work very well, there is no problem, until, AFTER the screen that says something like: keep your computer... (and the points move of one to three) and then it will just empty.

When I turn it on again, it turns on and has windows vista loading thing with green roof bar then and he'll just empty... as the screen is activated, but it is. just nothing...

I am able to fix this? or is it irreparable? I really need to use this pc, cause it runs the network/internet.

If I had to buy windows XP and install it... it still work? My laptop has vista, so I wanted to just the two to have the same system.

:(

You cannot run Vista in this Dell computer model.

Click on the link above: the latest drivers written for your model number are XP drivers.
There is no driver compatible Vista written for her.

Is XP the latest operating system from the Menu drop-down.

Call Dell and ask Dell to you send for your computer model XP Recovery discs to reinstall XP.

See you soon. Mick Murphy - Microsoft partner
