| | Warning IE8 RC1 Vista Ultimate with all the latest service packs and updates install, then installed IE8 RC1. Installed Internet Explorer 8 Release Candidate 1 and had the following problems. (1) Windows would not restart. (2) required going through Safe Mode startup to get Windows to finish installation. (3) after rebooting several times, finally got it going. (4) Aero was turned off after all of this. Not sure if it was a remnant of Safe Mode or from IE8 RC1. Note: If you have to reboot, then turn off the PC. Unplug the PC or turn the power switch off on the back of the PC on the power supply. Sometimes just using the buttons on the front of the PC does not remove all power and thus all facilities. I have seen this many times; demanding a complete power removal before the PC would restart properly. So where do I go to turn Aero back on? |

| | Re: Warning IE8 RC1 I would not install any software until it is officially released. RC1 is just a beta (test) version that MS is considering to be possibly ready for release.

| | Re: Warning IE8 RC1 They all should since Tyro is telling it as it is. IE8 RC1 is a BETA and many different combinations of programs and other suites can have a big effect on the OS.

| | Re: Warning IE8 RC1 It is still beta software that MS thinks is ready for release. If it were a release version, MS would say so. It is a "release candidate", not release software.
