i might work. funny seeing peeps use xp drivers in it (and they work). there was also a mention of vista rc/beta keys activating it. of course, i lost mine lol. i think some of the vista "activators" will work. not sure. not sure if you would really want it to lol

questions-from Mo-

--are you able to save bookmarks in firefox,

Yes- and the plug-ins work fine also

-- do the "post' (when replying in threads on forums) windows/page formats get all jiggy (using IE) when you start a reply?

No- steady all the time


can you go back a page when in firefox?

Sure- no problem

Also- I just finished making a DVD with the DVD maker- it came out great. Very easy and professional looking. I used a Lite-on DVD writer.

The Gadgets do seem to disappear now and again

I don't know why some have problems when I seem to be very satisfied.
It could be that the difference is with 64bit vs 32 bit version, or that I have a very clean copy.

Anyone else having difficulties?

it could be the 32bit thing. most i see on line are running 32bit. i burned my copy slow. weird thing is it started after i had used the setup for the time period i used it, ie it just started happening all of a sudden.it also could have been a corrupt bcd arrangement, as i had to do a diskcheck when it all started going pear shaped...i had installed the sp2 beta for the vista partition, and noticed weird stuff going on in the vista install also...
