you will need to restart several times to get it installed, (first you need to run the script file)

if anybody needs help let me know,

Installed in on my Vista 64 bit system. Worked great and get way better GigE transfer rates now (was 10MB/S and now is around 60MB/S).

Took about 30-40 mins on my 6600 (@3.6ghz) with 4GB of ram.

Oh an no issues at all.. system is running great all day.

I’ve downloaded the first two downloads, it’s just now downloading SP1
I had to uninstall the beta SP1 first,

Now I’m thinking of doing a clean install of vista, and then install SP1
I hope this fixes my mouse problem

Office 2007 SP1 is also available. Just downloaded mine through Windows update, though I think I'll hold off on updating Vista until the final SP1 is out.

Testing this baby out on the computer listed in my signature. Windows Vista 64-bit SP1 RC1 seems to be running very well. File transfers are faster and, on my first try with a benchmark (Performance Test 6.1 for 64-Bit), I scored higher than I had ever on pre-SP1... So, yeah. So far, so good. Will be checking out file download speed soon and gaming.

Exciting.
