Google earth

Once I have installed Google Earth on Vista Home Premium, my screen is
remaining "black" after rebooting. I have then to restaure my laptop to a
previous configuration. Is anybody can explain me what it is going on ??

Re: Google earth

Google Earth is not compatible with Vista (Plus Google earth is Verrrry
memory hungry). Try Local.live.com, they also have a 3D View which is
compatible with Vista.

Re: Google earth

Again, works fine here with Ultimate. It might be a driver issue with your
video card. You might try reinstalling Google Earth, maybe it was a bad
install. Make sure to download the newest version.
