So, I recently got a new computer which has vista on it (mentioning
vista is never way to start a problem post is it...?).

My problems are *simliar* to the ones outlined in the sticky Vista
problem thread, but not quite the same.
The services seem to run fine. Both MySQL and Slim services run on
automatic and seem to start ok.

The slimtray loads, however if I right click and select 'open
slimserver' to access the web interface it will close (the services
will keep running fine and so does slim.exe). If I select 'stop
slimserver' the service will stop (and so will the CPU usage from the
scan from slim.exe) but slim.exe will keep running.

If I load the tray from the shortcut placed on the desktop by the
installer the slimtray will load for 2 seconds then close again. If I
remove the '--start' from the shortcut slimtray will load fine, but
close as soon as I select 'open slimserver'. 

Trying to load the webinterface via  localhost:9000 web address in
firefox or IE results in a permentantly 'connecting' or 'loading' blank
page.

Any thoughts? I'm at a complete loss.

P.S.

Have tried installing as an administrator, changing the way services
load (delayed, or at login rather than startup). Tried the nightly
builds (including v7). Added slim, slimtray, mysql, scanner and
socketwrapper to windows firewall and defender. Also added ports 9000
and 7843 to the firewall and router.

The ports on my router are currently forwarding to the slimserver on my
pc, do they need to be forwarded to the squeezebox's ip too?

Oh, also my SB3 won't connect even tho Vista says the services are
running. Finds the network and gets an IP fine, just won't connect to
my PC where the slimserver is.
