Hi all.

I have a meeting tomorrow at 4pm online and I know I will probably forget.
How do I set reminders or alerts in Vista?

windows calendar?

I've found the Windows Calender always crashes when the reminder is supposed to pop up. It just comes up with error message saying "Windows Calender Has Stopped Working". This has happened on multiple machines with both 32 & 64 bit editions, so I suspect there's a bug somewhere.

Anyone else had this issue?

just tested on my 32bit - which is heavily modified using vlite and it works fine.

It was bugged, but was fixed in the performance and reliabilty updates:

"Improved the reliability of Windows Calendar in Vista."

Been fine for me since
