Vista Forums - View Single Post - Windows Explorer Stopped Working, Internet Explorer Stopped Working, what DOES work?

**FrustratedMan** · 08-06-2008

Actually, I think the root of 95% of my problems were caused by the .iso I got from Microsoft Technet. I used the Vista Ultimate w/SP1 Checked/Debug build from March 2008.

Last week I decided to try my friends copy of Vista Ultimate and use my product key, and so far Windows Update, Windows Media Center, Windows Defender, Dreamscenes, and everything else I was having problems with is now working. I haven't really used IE since the fresh installation, but hopefully that's mostly fixed, too.

I had been working with Support from Microsoft and I told them the situation, so Microsoft is aware (or should be) that their .iso they have posted on their Technet website is problematic.

Thanks for all your support!
