RE: [NF] 40 million Vista sales!
That's what I'm hoping too. Everything basically seems to run fine. Just those "VERY" annoying popups when you try to run things. There should be an option to turn them off, but I haven't found it yet.

RE: [NF] 40 million Vista sales!
Click the start button, type cmd, Vista will display cmd.exe above, right-click and run as administrator. I feel the same way. Strange thing is. I'm running Vista Business attached to an AD domain. If the network administrator logs into the box, all the UAC stuff is gone. No questions, it just does it. -Original Message- From: Virgil Bierschwale Sent: Thursday, May 17, 2007 9:46 AM How do you start a cmd window as administrator ?
