Did you check that it was Vista compatible before running it?

Loved it! I came here looking for answers about why I couldn’t install it correctly, saw my exact experience listed in ten steps, and quickly learned that my mistake was expecting it to work in the first place.

What s wrong with people. Can’t you just appreciate a joke ? this was actually quite funny. especially because i recognized myself in front of the 3 files i downloaded wondering what the Hell i was supposed to do next.

Lighten up people.
Thanks Doug.

While I certainly cannot match the eloquence and articulate genius of my fellow commenter HBX, I can’t help but second the notion of this post hitting a clear 12 (out of 10) on the Moron-Scale ™.

It is funny how it is always the same people who first complain that Microsoft does not share anything that is currently in development and then as soon as the first public CTP, Beta, or RC comes out you whine how impossibly complicated the installation is, how it didn’t help you browse lolcatz faster and how your mom still yells at you to finally move out of the basement.

Ah, ranting feels good. Anyway, I downloaded the SP1 RC from MSDN, ran the unattended installer which automatically rebooted my computer a couple of times and then greeted me with a friendly Success message after the installation was complete. Total time spent: 20 minutes.
