Thanks for the help! by
Iplant
I love to learn; so when the Media Center for Vista could not install my TV
tuner I came to this discussion board for a fix. And I'll be darned if I
didn't find one! SO to all those special people that take the time to answer
questions; thanks for the lessons. This time I think I'll actually leave
Vista installed!

Error during boot on vista installer by

I have the same problem with My Asus K8N-E Delluxe (Nforce4) motherboard.
Does anyone already have a solution The strange thing is that when I install
it on my MSI K8N Diamond deluxe with for the rest almost the same hardware
components as my Asus board the installation works just fine. My specs of
both systems are
Asus: 1 x 300 Gb Maxtor SATA drive, AMD 64 3000+ processor, 2 x 1 Gb...

Windows Basic, ugly again :-( by
Local Account
Microsoft, why you are ignoring all these users who love the current Xp
themes? I want to run Windows Basic on my computer, and I want it to look
close to the current Xp themes.
The current Windows Basic theme is actually very basic! Going to Vista will
be downgrading the OS from Xp to before Xp.

Start menu recently opened programs issue by

I thought it was broken but realized the settings I was looking for have
another page with more settings that override the first page! Right click the
"start menu" button then properties, that is the first page with the option
with "store and display a list of recently opened programs", now click
"Customize" next to the option above
with the radio button that says "Start Menu". On that page...

Vista RC1 installation question by
Joe727
Hi - I had been running Vista Beta 2 Build 5384 as a general beta tester. I
found a few bugs and reported them. But because Build 5384 ran slowly, I
removed it.
It's my understanding that subsequent Builds have solved many of the speed
problems, but those builds are available to general beta testers.
Question: When RC1 is released, will I have to reinstall Build 5384, or
will I be able...

Hardware issues by
Lang Murphy
A safe assumption, but they drop new builds every day, if not multiple times
a day, and many of the issues you may be having in, again, I assume build
5384, may very well already be fixed. For example; in 5472, there was no
video driver for the Intel 945GM chipset. In 5536, there are drivers, so
that's fixed. If I were still running 5472, the answer to fixing my video
card driver would be to...

Hardware issues by
Lang Murphy
I would hope that no one in their right mind would want to install Word for Windows 1.0 on anything, I was just using it as an example of asking for help for outdated software. Vista Beta 2 is outdated software. Build 5536, which I downloaded last Friday, for all intents and purposes, is outdated software because I am sure there a new builds already.

VISTA RAM by
DJ TECH
Yes Mario, I really am 13 years old.
And for those of you who wonder where I got 5536, today there are many ways
to find it over google and torrents, but I still don't do it that way. My
school's Campus Technologist is indeed a beta tester. She does everything
legal, so she sent a letter to the beta testing group, and asked them if it
was possible for her to issue me copies of the betas,...

No, RC2 would come after RC1 just like it did in

Vista Pirates by
M@dhat3rr
Recently, I've noticed some people on here who have 5472 & 5536, who are not
technet members, hence pirates. I'm alittle surprised that people who pirate
Vista have the intelligence (or lack thereof) to post here; asking for help
on a Microsoft created newsgroup.
I know most of you will say "So what? It's a beta release". Non-the-less, a
pirate is a pirate, right? Now we all know that...

Updating ATI or Intel Drivers on RC1 and Pre-RC1 builds by
B Barley
I doubt cmedia will get their act together for their new drivers for their
most basic motherboard chipsets used by manufactures like asus.
I've been using the win xp drivers, and it works...barely. I have a 7.1
surround sound system set up and all I get is the center speaker.
