Windows Vista Upgrade Advisor

It appears that my system passed Windows Vista Upgrade Advisor. A couple of issues that were found were my Nero 6.0 Ultra and McAfee Suite. So far it seems that Nero on the RC1 might work but the actual Release Candidate that gets shipped might not.

Thanks for the Vista news goes to Digital Inspiration.

I like to try new things so I am probably going to install Vista, even if only temporarily. I have recently upgraded my system so I now have a OS hard-drive and then a Data  hard-drive.

The download is only 6.40 MB. When I ran the scan it suggested I upgrade to Vista Business. There were 2 device issues, the ethernet card and the sound card. Not a big deal just upgrade the drivers from the Windows update.

The program issues were the 2 aforementioned. Others that might pose a compatibility issue were

• MSN Explorer - this one kind of surprised me.
• ATI Desktop- I don't think this will be big issue.
• HALO trial - I was going to delete it anyways.
• J2SE Runtime - Hopefully not an issue, just upgrade.

I am going to put the install off til the Christmas break. Let me know if your system passes and any application issues you might encounter.
