Martijn Posted June 13, 2006 Posted June 13, 2006 Miranda IM 0.4.0.3 release and 0.5.x.x alpha don't work either on Vista, you can't connect. The menu's are also screwed up.
WisdomWolf Posted June 13, 2006 Author Posted June 13, 2006 Ok I noticed a new bug with Winamp. If you try to display video with it it reverts your theme to Aero basic until you close Winamp. If you reopen winamp and play music everything is fine, the error/problem only occurs when displaying video.I also installed WinRAR and it works just fine. It even seems a bit faster at uncompressing files.
WisdomWolf Posted June 18, 2006 Author Posted June 18, 2006 Logmein installs and appears to work correctly until you attempt to login from a remote pc. It gives an error about the administrator refusing the request. Not that I expected it to work anyways, but it was worth a shot.
doxtr111 Posted June 30, 2006 Posted June 30, 2006 Wireless keyboards and mice only work as the most basic. Unable to reinstall with vista due to compatability problem.
jbbarker Posted June 30, 2006 Posted June 30, 2006 Adobe Photoshop Elements works without errors.Adobe Premiere Elements will install but fails to load.
skylegend Posted June 30, 2006 Posted June 30, 2006 Well, Yahoo Messenger, MSN Live Messenger, Office Beta 2007 all work with beta 2
averagecdn Posted July 5, 2006 Posted July 5, 2006 Anyone found a version of Nero that is compatible with Vista?
