Mine is sharing just fine. I didn't even use the same workgroup name, just left it at the default name.

Not sure, for the beta testing, we had to install it on a clean machine. Try it and let us know.

[Stephen47]

ok I will. Another thing if I do a clean install how do I transfer my iTunes account?

[~Candy~]

Um, you sound like you are going to make this your MAIN computer This is a Beta product.

[Stephen47]

no I have another hard drive I am going to use. I was planning to make an image and try the upgrade on that. Is that legal?

[~Candy~]

Should be fine, after all, this is beta testing

[Stephen47]

Thanks I will keep you posted.
What about the iTunes? Or should I ask that in a different thread?

No, the only upgrade path supported is from Vista SP1.

I'm not a big fan of Gadgets .. But I thought I'd play with them.

If I click on gadgets in control panel or personalize .. nothing happens
Is this just me ??

@ AcaCandy.......Thanks to "Eriksrocks' posting, I noticed that the username "acersucks" is OK with "BigBrother". But then the Acer is not a Microsoft "creation". I wrote yesterday regarding the embarrassing experience I had with the Zune a couple of weeks ago @ my party when " Leap year kicked in" hence my frustration at 'Things" Microsoft. I asked my user name be changed to "VistaRedux' so as not to ruffle any more feathers in this "Free" and "Open"Forum. In any case, I bid you all farewell. Only Arnold could say it better than I. .............................."Hasta La Vista... VISTA"... I sincerely hope that Windows 7 is not "Vista Redux for you folks. I admire your passion determination and anticipation. Farewell and Good Luck!..........Hasta La Vista.
