MrCobra Posted July 30, 2005 Share Posted July 30, 2005 You definately cannot use this as a main system, no way. That's why it's called BETA software. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xav Posted July 31, 2005 Share Posted July 31, 2005 Thanks! I'll burn a new copy and try now. 586299729[/snapback] Don't unpack the ISO, that stops it booting. Just burn at 1x if you're really paranoid about it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MercX Posted July 31, 2005 Share Posted July 31, 2005 Got it working and I'm happy to say that I am typing this reply from within Vista!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mlerner Posted July 31, 2005 Share Posted July 31, 2005 Seems like everyone have this issue with their sound cards... I have an Audigy 2 Value with same problem. Weird that theres no driver included in Vista... 586295975[/snapback] Audio support is limited in Beta 1, the audio will be properly supported for most cards in Beta 2 (this is according to Microsoft via the beta newsgroups) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+dave164 Subscriber¹ Posted July 31, 2005 Subscriber¹ Share Posted July 31, 2005 Ive been playing with Vista for the last day with saxondale. (did another all nighter last night), i must say it looks ace with the glass effects, really impressed by the concept. There are a few of noticeable bugs, nothing that would make me stop using it as a primary os, my wireless lan works (Belkin 802.11b USB Adapter). Ive yet to test it with a few games and benchmarks dave164 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ClintEastman Posted July 31, 2005 Share Posted July 31, 2005 Hey, is anyone else having a problem with svchost.exe running at 95-99%? 586302706[/snapback] start it up and then go for the services, have a look at "Windows Audio" and see if it is "Starting...". If so it's your audio driver, Now if your running on the nforce 2 chipset install these drivers:- ftp://download.nvidia.com/Windows/nForce/standalone/6.39/ That's what worked for me. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
