I had probably the most frustrating ten minutes i have ever spent on a computer before.
Start, typed in regedit enter.
Vista:Are you sure you want to run this program?
Me: Yes. I went OUT of my way, hit start, run and typed in the pogram name I wanted. Thanks for checking though. (click) ....
Edit the registry, close it. That was easy. ....
double clicked on setup. Stupid shield on my icon, what does that mean?
Vista: are you sure you want to run this? it's a program, you know.
Me: Oh that must be what the shield is for. Vista feels like it should protect me from software!
Vista: This is from AMD. Do you trust AMD?
Me: yes, they pay me. I trust them. (click) .....
Install......that was easy. ....
Oops, there's a problem. Well, let's grab the correct file from the build server and copy it over ...
Open my computer, go to program files ....
Vista: Are you sure you want to go there?
Me:Yes (click) ...
open up the application folder ....
drag a file from a network share to the application folder....
Vista: Are you sure you want to overwrite this file?
Me: Yes (click)
Vista:A program wants to write to the Program Files folder. Is this ok?
Me: Yes (click)
Vista:You are trying to copy from a network share to the program files folder. This isn't allowed. Hit ok.
Me: (Pounds head) (click) ....
Drag to Desktop. ....
Drag from desktop to application folder. ...
Vista:
Are you sure you want to overwrite this file?
me: [censored] yes
Vista:A program wants to write to the Program Files folder. Is this ok?
Me: Die.Die.Die.Die.
Follow Up #1: I apologize. There was a phrase I should have censored to make it family friendly. It has been censored now.
