Jim,
Hi,
Some of that stuff on your list; is because RC1 is using new drivers.
The ATI one for example;is older than the one in RC1
CA EZ-trust was;at first;a recommended AV;but in the 1st few weeks of beta
2;was pulled from MSFT's recommendation site.
Looking at this list; it seems like you are running a Dell?
Which I am; a Dell e1505 laptop.
Avast has a great AV that works in rc1 now.

Jim,
The RC1 default ATI drivers are ATI's newest. And I'm using Intel
3945abg-which doesnt have the Proset Utility;compatabilty, but I just don't
add it.
Works great with the native Vista driver.
Also; I've also got the Broadcomm nic; and as with Intel; the native
Vista drivers are working fine;right outta the box(DVD)-lol; I just stay
away from the software part; of Intel and Broadcomm;because those are what's
incompatable.

Can't see the problem, fact is that Vista is a major change from XP,
it's a miracle that so many apps still work. And besides, it's up to the
software vendors to ensure that their apps works on a specific OS, and I
doubt that many of them have been tested for Vista. Just be lucky that
they didn't do it like Apple, make all apps obsolete all in one go.

Hey Guys,
I been playing with Vista x64 for a few day and my screens seemed sluggish
so I donwloaded the latest ATI Drivers today (I played with vista beta 2 and
you have to download the one that includes both x86 and x64) and I must say I
have much better performance.
I'm running a x1600po and an ATI TV Wonder Elite... remote not working but
ATI control panel and all screens look great and are quick.

I don't know if that all in one package makes a diffrence for anyone else
but it worked better for me than the drivers Installed with Vista.
Anyhow, Just a thought
