Title: Be careful!
Post by: Noreen on May 02, 2009, 11:11:41
QuoteFollowing on from another thread on this forum, discussing SP2 RC. SP2 is now RTM and is available to MSDN and TechNet subscribers (I'm MSDN). It's due to be publicly available on May 5th.

Using EAV BE x64 4.0.424, installing Vista SP2 RTM causes a BSOD during phase 3/3 of the service pack install. Rebooting causes the same. As such, my OS is hosed.

I'm not bothered, as I was planning to wipe and install Win 7 RC anyway, but I thought others should know.

So to confirm: Installing Vista SP2 x64 with EAV BE 4.0.424 installed, there's a strong chance you'll end up in a mess.

I'm sure ESET will be working on this; I just hope (for their reputation) that it's something which changed between RC and RTM, since RC has been available for testing a long time.

It was bound to happen, but hopefully software makers will respond quickly.
