im not upgrading to it. i have it on dual boot, just to check it out. also its strange that the newest thing i have for my pc (my usb broadband modem) is the only thing that wont install! but its the fact that the cd wont allow setup.exe to run... :o

oh and i cant get it to read my gfx right, it says its 64Mb but says its just a basic vga card... meaning i cant check out media center! bastards

I'm not agreeing with you?
The betas are to get rid of bugs.
Theres very little done for bugs after the OS is RTM.
And you say no support at all for vista which is also wrong.
There is support atm and there will be plenty iby January when its released to the public.

And I doubt they will have a service pack out for it after its only been released 6 months.
Only fixes will be security ones.
And there's little support at the moment because it's still in beta.
so you arguing that you agree with me...

drivers are being done by many manufacturers now, but dont expect older hardware to be supported if a newer, better model has been released, and the older one discontinued.

5342 is still beta tho, i'm waiting for the final release which i will be getting for free and also legally which is nice!

when the drive is mounted as above, all you got to do to play it open it under my computer and it will appear as a normal dvd. Have you tried opening the file with VLC though? That plays some dvd files (like .bin's) without having to mount them, great program anyway!
