I have compiled a breif compatibility list for Software running in Vista Beta 2. Please add to it as you see fit and ignore any mistake as it was compilied in 10 minutes and late at night. Here is the list copied from Excel 2007.

Program ------ Compatible ---------- Notes
uTorrent ----- Yes -------- Requires manual port forwarding/does not save itself as default app for .torrent
Nero 7 -------- No -------- Silently fails or fails if run as Admin
Nero 6 --------Yes ------- Express doesn't work
Winamp ------ Yes ------ Taskbar preview presents odd behavior/extra taskbar items
Trillian ------- Yes ------- Settings/Buddy list not saved
FlashFXP ------ Yes ------- None
Oblivion ------- Yes ------- Runs a bit slower, but overall well. BSOD after 5 min.
WMP11 -------- Yes ------- Search causes system slowdown/sound system crash
Office 2007 ------- Yes ------- None
Limewire ------ Yes ------ Disables Aero Glass
XviD -------- Yes ------- Decodes as expected

My system:
Athlon 64 X2 4200+
2GB OCZ RAM running 1T command rate
250GB Seagate 7200RPM drive w/8M cache
PNY GeForce 6800GS w/256MB

Miranda IM 0.4.0.3 release and 0.5.x.x alpha don't work either on Vista, you can't connect. The menu's are also screwed up.

Ok I noticed a new bug with Winamp. If you try to display video with it it reverts your theme to Aero basic until you close Winamp. If you reopen winamp and play music everything is fine, the error/problem only occurs when displaying video.

I also installed WinRAR and it works just fine. It even seems a bit faster at uncompressing files.

Logmein installs and appears to work correctly until you attempt to login from a remote pc. It gives an error about the administrator refusing the request. Not that I expected it to work anyways, but it was worth a shot.

Wireless keyboards and mice only work as the most basic. Unable to reinstall with vista due to compatability problem.

Adobe Photoshop Elements works without errors.
Adobe Premiere Elements will install but fails to load.

Well, Yahoo Messenger, MSN Live Messenger, Office Beta 2007 all work with beta 2

Anyone found a version of Nero that is compatible with Vista?
