Hello,

I've already contacted MySpace.Com & Adobe about the following problem of
which does not happen with Firefox 3.

I'm told to install Flash (and I already have the latest, uninstalled and
reinstalled) or I won't be watching video or music apps appear.

So, the question is, how do I fix this?

BTW, there is no way to uninstall IE8 Beta that I can find in Vista...
This problem did not happen with IE7 and Vista Home Premium w/SP1.

Hi,

You can try viewing the web page in compatibility mode by clicking the
'Compatibility view' button on the address bar when you encounter a page
that does not render properly. Please note that Internet Explorer 8 is till
in BETA, so certain third party extensions such as Adobe Flash Player might
not be compatible yet. Have installed the latest version of Flash Player -
10 to see if it improves the situation?

To uninstall IE 8, click start > type 'Programs and Features' > under task >
click 'View Installed Updates" > do a search for 'Windows Internet Explorer
8' > right click it and click uninstall. A restart might be required.

For issues with Internet Explorer 8, you might also want to post this to the
respective newsgroup:
microsoft.public.internetexplorer.beta

Hi,

I tried a BIOS update, for runtime errors (Java) and that did not work for I
already have the latest before downloading a (what I thought) would be new
one.
I cannot find this compatibility mode feature written of.

Well, I'm not so busy, so I thought I would come see what you folks have
been up to. Good seeing you too. :)
 
Its located to the left of the 'Refresh and Stop' button on the Address bar.
Its 'broken page' icon.
 
I suspect this is a likely compatibility problem between IE and Flash for
now. I recommend going back to Internet Explorer 7 for now until the issue
is resolved or use Firefox to view those particular web pages while you test
IE 8.

If you are not seeing the Flash Player extension in IE 7 add-ons, its
possibly you have Flash installed for Firefox. Make sure you have the
ActiveX Control for Flash Player installed:
