Burning Vista RC1 with Nero...

[MIDIman]

Hmmmm...just downloaded RC1. When I open the ISO in Nero, it says that the header does not correspond to the correct length of the file - Corret or Ignore?

I burning now with Ignore (since Correct required inputting options before continuing), but has anyone else run into this problem?

corrupt downloads with vista are common, especially if you used their downloader app.
use free nero md5 verifier

Signatures of the ISO files:

THANKS...

Is Outlook Webmail no longer supported in Vista? I'm using IE7 and while my webmail seems to work quite well, when I goto start a New Mail window, there's just an X in the text/text-formatter area.

I agree that it does sound like a corrupt download, but not sure what the complaint is about MSFT's file transfer manager, I've never had it give me issues (it hashes every download upon completion, so if you use it you should rarely have corrupt downloads).

Where are you getting RC1 from anyways? You arent pulling it from an unofficial source are you (i.e. bittorrent)?

OWA used to use an Active-X control that doesnt work in Vista, there is an exchange update that addresses this issue here:

The corrupted ISO was definitely a download issue. I did not use the download manager. I redownloaded using the manager and that one worked fine. MIght've just been a hiccup in my internet connection.

Concerning OWA and Vista...is there a client-side fix? Our help desk would laugh their ass off if I sent this in as a support request. I have a feeling Vista won't be supported until this time next year.

No, this is an Exchange-side issue.

Reference the KB article and maybe you can get one of them to escalate. It's not like IE 7 is a beta product anymore so the number of users running it will only increase.

The only "client-side fix" is to not run IE 7, or use the basic interface.

I use Firefox 2.0 in RC2 and have no problems downloading.
