    November CTP on XPHome ?

    Has anyone tried the November CTP on XP Home (with SP2) ?.

    I have installed it on 4 computers with this OS without any big success.
    Either everything crashes with 'bamlParseException' (see another post in this
    forum) or the WinFX application runs once after reboot and subsequently shows
    a black window only (I've read about this problem elsewhere).
    On WinXP Pro everythings seems to work as expected (tests on 3 computers).

    When the 'bamlParseException' occurs, I get a .NET 2.0 Runtime error in the
    event log (EventType clr20r3, P1 windowsapplication1.exe, P2 1.0.2174.39917,
    P3 43a08a4a, P4 presentationframework, P5 6.0.5070.0, P6 435ad00d, P7 556d,
    P8 406, P9 4npnftxuxdlcnidnulbbejhvsu4dpbp2, P10 NIL.)

    It works fine for me. Sounds like you might not have removed all previous
    versions try unintalling (usually everything that has beta next to it) and
    then run the js script as mentioned in Tim Sneath's blog located here
    http://blogs.msdn.com/tims/archive/2...20/471815.aspx
    Another nice to do is update your video driver.

    mmm.. Good new or bad news ? Since I have some other PCs available in the
    office running XP Prof. (everything works) and 3 PCs with XP Home at Home
    (nothing works), my last hope was, that there is any special hint to get WPF
    applications running on those systems....
    In the meantime I've checked some other hints , like this:
    http://blogs.msdn.com/nickkramer/arc...20/506180.aspx
    I don't' have any any Beta installations since last month, I've restored
    everything from the original XP installation CDs. Some of my projects require
    VS2003, so I've installed this version, then VS2005 then then WinFX
    components. In the GAC I see only Microsoft things and 'Crystal Report'
    assemblies.
