Vista - Has anyone tried Everquest 2 with RC1

Very curious. I resolved my issues of the vista beta I had with eq2, by
wiping my drive and reloading xp. Not a single issue or lag. Am really
curious if anyone has tried the RC1 version of Vista with the game.

It works great for me in Vista RC1 (Im using 5728 build)

im having a heck of a time with EQ2 could really use some help... first off
i get an error everytime the launcher loads i get LP_Plugin.exe has stopped
working... then i did finally get it to install and as soon as i log in to
the game it tells me the laucher stopped working... when in game i cannot go
thru any transitions.. it dumps me bak to the desktop..
i never had any issues at all with xp pro.. i am going to assume i have
something blocking my internet to get it to behave but i am at a loss now
where to check .. i am also having issues with NWN2.. i can play solo but i
cannot connect to any servers..
HELP

RC1 is a beta build. Do you really expect to find support for a beta build
of the OS, particularly when the OS is now out of beta?

Sorry, just have to point that out.

If Microsoft is supporting it why can't you? Sorry, just have to point this
out.

yup yup tried that.. i run it as admin.. that doesnt seem to help althought
it did help to get the game updated.. the downloader kept stoping before
that. i thought maybe it was char related but i get the same prob with all
my characters... maybe that lp_plugin.exe is supposed to do something even
though i have seen threads that say it doesnt.... frustrating.. argggggg!!
