That's timely and great information... thanks.
I just bought a Vista machine and have been updating it. So, two related

Officially CF7 isn't supported on Vista (CF7 arrived nearly two years before
Vista) and initially CF8 support was flaky (but so was Vista) - but now works a
treat. Consider upgrading. CF7 is now old and superceded tech as far as
ColdFusion goes.
2. Also, Vista does not support SQL Server2000 so I had to upgrade
to 2005 (big pain).
There is always SQL Server 2005 Express if you get desperate. Vista and CF8
support both (expect a few patches for SQL Server however - sigh!).

It is possible, but it takes a bit of extra work. In order to get the
installer itself to run, you have to right click on it and select 'Run as
Administrator'. Then, once the installer does run, you will have JVM issues as
the JVM that comes with Vista is newer than what CFMX 7 can
