Well with 3.2 out, I installed it - or tried to. Due to some unknown reason, as the only user of this laptop I did not have the needed privileges for installing some of the files. So it stopped in the middle and canceled itself.
So I had to go through Vista's Compatibility install system and installed it as an Administrator. I am the admin with all the privileges of one, besides being the only account on the laptop. The install went zipping by in "install as admin" mode. Now it is installed, I ran it. The web site stated it would open up in half the speed. Well, I did not get half speed. I got 1/5 or 1/10 speed opening up. The same from opening manager to Writer. That part is great. Well for whatever reason, this is the first time I had to go through the compatibility system and run the install as an administrator. Also this seems to be the first time I saw MS Visual C++ redist. being added to my system with the install. So, does anyone out there know why I had to install OOo 3.2 as an Administrator? Or why for the first time MS Visual C++ was needed? running an Dell Inspiron 1525 laptop with 4 gig ram, Vista Home/pre 32-bit with all updates --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
