Hi,
Many people at Raisonance use Ride under Vista.
I myself have my main development PC running the French version of Vista 32. I just tried this morning to install the same versions of the kits that you mentioned and saw no problem.
So there is probably something special or unexpected in your system, but I don't think it's the language. We must find what it is before we know if there is something to correct in Ride.
We always have the antivirus and firewall running, so the problem is probably not there. UAC is turned OFF on my PC, I don't know for the others.
Yves and Francis, who develop the CircleOS, are also working under Vista (one Vista32 and one Vista64, both in English) and they use the Ride and ARM kits every day.
Please confirm that when you installed Ride you were logged in with an account that has admin rights, AND that you executed the installer using the 'Run as Admin' option.
Is it Vista home or pro?
Best Regards,
Vincent
