    Unfortunately, found no solution so far. Am using Foxit Reader which seems to work ok.

    AR 9 has gone on ok now, UAC set to min. Most things getting ironed out now. Just put W7 also my Samsung NC10 netbook, works a treat.

    Having a slight issue with sharing files from an external drive, but hopefully should figure it out.

    An update to my Homegroup issue. Basically anything I shared via homegroup was great, but I couldn't get shares from an ext hdd to work correctly. I could play media from those shares, despite having full access. Nor could I add them to my homegroup shares.

    What I did was added the files as library locations in my 'Video' library on the homegroup. Put everything in one place, and shared straight away.

    Had issues with a few games after using Orbits crack for removing the watermark and send feedback link. Apparently it breaks the 'Compatibility Mode'.

    So, for the sake on my GTA IV experience, I'm either going to reinstall Windows 7 without the 'crack' or opt back to XP.

    Mind you, not long (hopefully) til the Release Candidate's available...

    Ahh you must have missed my post in the other thread with Orbit's removal tool. It was a real pain in the ass, did the same to me, and I couldn't find a fix. Ended up re-installing.
