What happens if you right-click on the .exe > run as Admin?

Problem with Vista & iTunes

I have a different problem with iTunes. It gets through the installation
but tells me that not everything was installed, the CD/DVD burn will not
work.

It turns out that iTunes is not compatible with 64 bit Windows. It works
mostly but will not allow me to burn. Not sure about ripping from the
CD/DVD.

Maybe the problem you're seeing has something to do with 64 bit?

Vista Ultimate x64
 
 

Re: Problem with Vista & iTunes

Go here Driver Updates - GEAR Software, Multimedia Made Easy, GEARSEC download the drivers for 64 bit in the second box, install them and then reboot your machine. It works perfectly. I did it and now I can burn CDs from iTunes. Not sure why iTunes doesn't make it available from their site but it works perfectly. Have fun!
