I have Windows XP Home SP2. I installed and tried to run Windows Vista
Upgrade Advisor. The program starts running and it continues to scan almost
indefinately and does not stop and return any information.
 
You are [at least] the 4th person to report this. There is clearly a
bug in the Vista Upgrade Advisor that causes it to hang and never
complete on some systems.
 
Can I be notified by email when another version of this software comes out
with a fix for this issue?

This happens to me too, I have the Windows Home SP2 too and when I run this
advisor it never ends running. I've already left it running all day and it
ujust continued.................on...........and on....................and
on..........
 
I have the same problem. In programming 101 we learned not to write code
that would go into an infinite loop. Looks like someone on the Microsoft
Vista team goofed. Frankly, it scares me to purchase the Vista system when
the advisor fails.
 
Ditto here. Microsoft dosn't have to worry about getting out Vista to the
general public in Janurary of 2007, but they should be worried about all the
tec support request they will hammered with. I think I am going to wait a
couple of years before I upgrade or buy a new system with Windows Vista in
it. Oh heck, I'll just sit around and watch the Vista water boil.

Oh - I'll get it. I'll install it. I'll use it. BUT - there is one
thing I will NOT do. I will not give up my XP pro setup for a LONG time
to come. Vista will sit on a partition of it's own and be tested . .
. . . and tested.

If IE7 and Windows Live OneCare are examples of what Vista represents I
may NEVER fully use it.
 
Everyone to their own opinion, I love IE7 and have installed it on both of
my XP partitions (X86 and X64) One Care not.
