Installing. Going to try it out. IE7 was a mess for me so I rolled back to IE6. I never tried IE8 Beta 1. Maybe this will work better.

Installed it and tryiing it out now, it at least seems to be running a little better now since it is X64 version, the X86 version didn't work well on my system before.

It replaced my I.E. 7, but I didn't check if I could have installed along side, but I didn't see that option during the install either

Thanks
Mark
It replaces it.
So far I'm disappointed. Here is my first major issue:

On the plus side, the big problem I had with IE7 (which caused me to trash it and roll back to IE6) was that if I had more than 2 tabs open and tried to reduce them to 2 it would crash. So far I'm not having that problem now.

All I can say is it's lightning fast on Vista though IE7 was no slouch either, on a clean install, not even any security loaded. Compared to FF3 on XP though, IE8 beat it hands down. Only reason I didn't try IE8 on my XP was it wanted to download updates and run a Malicious Software Check and I'm not ready to trust it yet to be error free using my production rig.

Did you install IE8 B2 on your signature rig?
After I posted in the "microsoft.public.internetexplorer.beta" NG someone posted they had no problem w/ Photosynth & this beta in Vista x64.
All the other tips & suggestions over there only deal w/ security settings & addon being enabled using the addon manager. Maybe its a x86 OS thing
I have it installed in Vista Ult x86.
