Vista: Some QQs

Gas Panic! · 2 Jan 2007 at 10:56

Hi guys,

I searched the forum and it answered a few Qs, but I still have a couple:

So firstly, I'm looking to upgrade to Vista when it is released. I've run the upgrade advisor and it says that most devices will work straight away. However, is there still a need for me to install specialist software? For example, my Logitech mouse. It says it will work, but will I have all the software etc that allows me to edit the Sensitivity?

Second question: It says that Comodo Firewall, NOD32 and Alcohol 120% will not work on Vista - is this true? And are they working on versions that will?

If you could answer these (very nooby) questions I'd be very grateful.

Cheers

NOD32 does indeed work in Vista, Eset released a new version which includes all the compatability you need. The other programs I'm afraid I do not know the answers to.

Well, I guess that's the most important one out of the 3 - so that's good!

Cheers.

NOD32 update 2.7 works on Vista (I am using it right now).

The newer builds of Alcohol 120% work in x86 Vista too.

My Logitech MX700 mouse is fully functional in Vista, but I cannot install the software to "tweak" it

according to Logitech, Windows Vista is not currently supported by SetPoint.

Well that's helped me out a lot, cheers fellas. Logitech should release new software soon hopefully...

Does DVD Decrypter work on Vista?

Weird, I'm pretty sure I had SetPoint working flawlessly over 6 months ago when I tried Beta 2!

I found this website quite use when try to find out which software is currently compatible.
