Got My Older Dell 8400 Repaired By Using Parts From My Broken Dell XPS 600
And I Installed Windows Vista RC1!

 

[Kevin John Panzke]

Update: I installed Microsoft Office Beta 2 on Windows Vista RC1 and then
attempted to download the TR using IE 7,
Download Failed: Insufficient Quota, I am now attempting to download the TR
using Mozilla Firefox instead.

Kev, get a blog. Seriously.

 

[Kevin John Panzke]

Update: I successfully downloaded and installed the TR for Microsoft Office
2007 Beta 2 using Mozilla Firefox in Windows Vista RC1, IE 7 for Windows
Vista RC1 still needs more work, Just FYI.

This is a Windows Vista RC1 Issue and is Not Off Topic, Just FYI.

Update: I installed Avast 4.7 Home Edition (a very great AV Solution, by
the way), and can now Officially Say that both Microsoft and Windows Vista
Suck Big Time! We Need a Release Candidate 2 (for Microsoft Connect, MSDN,
and Tech Net Plus), Just FYI. John Jay Smith was right after all!

Perhaps, your jerry rigged computer sucks big time.

What happened to that brand new computer your mommy
and daddy bought you? Fudge it already? Shame.

Then why does Windows Vista RC1 give me a Compatibility Warning about Avast
4.7 Home Edition? Just FYI!

 

[MICHAEL]

I don't know WTF that has to do with what I said to
you. But, maybe, you are not using the right version
of Avast for Vista.

Who made you an 'official', capable of making "official" statements?.

 

[Intel Inside]

Why not report the issue as a bug to MS using the feedback tools?.
Or you can discuss this in the Connect ng for Vista.

Geez, that's a known problem which Avast it working on with MS, and that's
noted on the Avast site.. Otherwise it works fine. The latest version is
4.7.883.

There's a difference between an off-topic post, and a pointless post.
Re-read the first message you've started this thread with, take a step back,
and ask yourself whether this is contributing anything towards the
development of Vista.

If you run into issues, fine, post them; this is what this newsgroup is all
about. But please take the time to gather your thoughts first and post
maybe a recap after the fact. Just don't start threads with a message
saying you've clicked on setup.exe, followed by another message saying
you've clicked Next, and another saying you've clicked Finish. Your
messages have to be useful to someone. Otherwise, their best place is on a
blog, where only those interested in the minute details of your life can
keep going back for more.

If you're going to suggest using a killfile, then I'd respond by saying that
the reason so many people killfile your posts is...you.
