I second the verify!  I dual boot and triple booted two separate machines
and the ASSUMED admin was not so!   Even when I installed and setup XP and
Vista on the same day and with all the same passwords and rights. I went
back and found the shares were not the same.

I will admit, but with one hiccup the other day, I installed Vista on
another laptop (a replacement! See note below) and had half the troubles by
comparison. Newer version of Vista (not the first release that caused these
problems) so in short the newer version did not cause any troubles and now
several programs that WOULD not work are.






Laptop Description    Generic FL-92 ASI, Dual Core, All Intel, Intel Turbo
Boost, 4 gig Ram, 250gig Drive etc.....  Ok it boots up fast. I was
shocked,from a cold boot. 

Just my .02   signing off and going driving, Bye.

Larry,

Are you certain this account has administrator access?  I ask because when I
initially set up my Vista machine, I just assumed the initial account would
be administrator.  It was not.  It took some time to stumble across a method
for getting an actual administrator account established.

You could also try:

- open Explorer 
- find RBG76.EXE
- right click
- click "run as administrator"

... to see if it will "take."

Subject: [RBASE-L] - Install issues on Vista.

I recently took advantage of the RBTI special to get licenses of RB-76 and
RB-V8 for my flashy new Vista laptop.  I'm only getting around to installing
them now and I'm having trouble entering my license numbers and getting an
activation key.

I can enter my license numbers but when I push "Get Activation Key Online"
nothing happens.  I get an un-activated copy of R:Base.  Then, when I close
R:Base and restart it again
 I get prompted again for my license key, which I had entered previously.

I'm doing this from an account with Administrator access.  I assume it has
something to do with Vista's security settings.

Any suggestions?
