On an aside note... trillian installs... do not install Quicktime 6 though. It reports it has issues and then aero crashes. I did not take it further I just removed quicktime and will live without AV capabilites in trillian (not that I have used AV in about 3 years anyway  ) |

I have opera 9 beta installed, ezTrust 1 yr trial thanks for the recommendation JP works great. Installed as admin ran the scan and no problems at all
Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion also installs perfectly, and plays just fine. Although you do need to disable the side bar before gaming otherwise it tries to show through the game. Will have to try disabling transparency too and see if that helps tweak the performance in game. I still need to make the adjustments on the game to get it to run well on my x700 but WOW
WinRAR and O&Odefrag appear to working fine as well |
