Vista Upgrade Advisor Problem

I have downloaded and install the Windows Vista Upgrade Advisor Beta software
and have installed it on my home computer. My problem is after I launch the
software and select “Start system Scan” I receive a page cannot be found
error page. You know the one that tells you to check network settings – etc.
Well my network connection is fine and I have no trouble accessing any web
sites at all. Has anyone else experienced this and know how to get past this
error?

I use WinXP Pro SP2 w/ IE 7 beta1

Thanks

Re: Vista Upgrade Advisor Problem

Try reinstalling the product - should fix it.

He did that. I would suggest downloading the application again. Also, it
could be a conflict with IE 7.

Re: Vista Upgrade Advisor Problem

I have re-installed it 2x and also tried running the repair option.
I guess I will try removing IE7 Beta 1 unless anyone else has an idea?
