Everyone who claims this....or any....piece of software....has no issues, please clap your hands. (listens to the mournful sound of the wind through the audience as no one makes so much as a fartnoise). Good. That's settled. There is a difference between 'I'm not having that problem' and 'There are -no- problems'. And before anyone gets defensive, re-read the thread. Maybe even change the names around, so you aren't seeing your words by you, but your words from another 'person' (actually, to be most effective, print this out then alter the author names, then put it away for a week or three. Then read it, and see how it reads. Might be surprised....) Let me ask those who are having such troubles; Downloaded, yes? Restarted? Yes or no. Next. What is the actual bit count of the final download? Mine is 698,619,233 bytes in size, or 699,527,168 bytes on disk. I got this in one download over cable. Does this match what your vue 6 infinite install folder weighs in at? Did you uninstall the pre-release before installing the final? Did you run a registry cleaner (or manually delete all the eon regkeys) before installing the final? Did you delete or move all the V6 pre-release files from the eon folders in my documents before installing the final? I won't try and get into all the other factors that could be making any one installation worse than the others. I've tried, usually to be met with a rousing round of 'But My System Can't Be The Problem Because---!', and it frankly isn't worth the static. I keep a list of the -order- I install things in, because that can have a tremendous impact on how stable =everything= is. I daresay far too many just pile things in willy--nilly, and couldn't be bothered to clean up an install or uninstall, despite the decade plus reality that Windows couldn't wipe its own ass with a harem of one hundred seventy two scatophiles to help it and a virgin rainforest's load of toilet paper to practice with.... We now return to our regularly scheduled program....
