hey just installed windows vista beta2 and i actually have a couple of
problems .. first it seems that i cant run certain files from desktop and
also for what ever reason
when i try to get into control panel it locks up and tryes to restart
explorer ..... tryed rebooting and everything .. sighhh ..
 
I'm also having this issue. For me windows explorer crashes whenever I try to
open an Explorer Window(including control panel). I was wondering if the
problem had to do with me runing 32 bit Vista on an AMD64 X2. Would
appreciate a moderators reply as soon as possible.
 
Um, there are no moderators, this is a peer group.

No it is not due to the fact that you are running 32bit on an AMD 64 X2
 
I, too, am hving problems with the control panel. When I hover on it from
the Start menu, it will not launch and crash. It will run from Safe Mode,
but I'm assuming what ever is causing the crash is not loading. I'm to the
point of considering going back to XP, but hanging in for now.
 
It looks like there`s more people with this problem.
I tryed to upgrade my videocard drivers but that didn`t work either.
 
I installed last night, and I have a similar problem. Explorer windows won't
open (including, most annoyingly, control panel), can't access any
personalization settings so my desktop's stuck at a crappy resolution with a
crappy colour scheme. Updated graphics drivers didn't help. Has anyone
managed to correct this yet?
 
I too have this problem. I now get a message saying it is fixed in windows
vista customer preview release.

It would be nice if they said what the problem was.
 
I have that same problem and it told me about the Microsoft Vista Customer
Technology Preview release so I guess we should all wait.
 
i was also having the crashing whenever trying to open control panel i have a
p4 2.8 ghz. HT with 512 ram when i setup a thumb drive for ready boost it
opens fine now if any of you have access to one of them try it and let me
know happy to help
 
i also was having the smae problem i have 512 ram when i setup a thumb drive
for readyboost it opens fine now of any of you have access to one try it and
let me know happy to help
 
Ok i have the same problem but somehow my CP came back...

in my computer it was SOUNDMAX INTEGRATED DIGITAL AUDIO that broke it. When
i installed the Windows Vista compatibility Driver, CP got broken...

then i found another web page with a driver for my soundcard and when i
installed it, CP was BACK!:...

but now my problem is, that with the new driver, my microphone isnt working
:((((
