"beta" is another word for Microsoft's opinion, "no guarantees expressed or implied". It might work, or might not. It should work, but it may not. You may be one of the first that has actually tried it.

BOINC is the only version that will take advantage of both sides of a true dual core. The UD interface would only work on half of it.

I am glad to hear that there are some folks that are out there trying to help work things out with VISTA the UD Agent and the BOINC agent. When Microsoft begins distribution of non-beta, it will likely become the default operating system (for better or worse) for many if not most PC users. When that time comes, the work of the intrepid pioneers like yourself will pay off as the rest of the community will not have to deal with the problems like this one. Thanks!

lol it realy works:)
thanks!

Have u noticed the web being slow......watch out for Bill "We will Assimilate u" G.......every internet DNS call Vista makes is doubled, because it first checks if IPv6 is available (of course not), then IPv4, rather then ad-interim the inverse.......the experts are not agreeing, but Vista in large roll out is predicted to cause the DNS Server system to grind to a near halt.

Displeased

PS, Vester reporting 50%...is that not the ol single core issue for UD Agent?
