   rs when you asked this same question yesterday.   
      
       Never actually got an answer, but I went ahead and   
   did the install. The process went fine( l---o---n---g) but   
   it was "installed" and the key verified.   
      But there are problem I can't seem to find a fix for.   
   The main one is a falure ( except once or twice) to find   
   and "hold" my wireless router. No locations have changed   
   since the original Vista version which found both mine ( a dual band   
   route) and the neighbors' !   
      Any suggestions??
