System Requirements Lab versus Vista

[CrossLOPER]

Does anyone know how to circumvent Vista's internet blocks so I can download SRL files?

Internet blocks? Are you using IE7?

Ok, tested it, it works in IE7 here, just tell it to execute the xml plugin.

Doesn't work in Opera, probably because Opera doesn't support xml.

If you mean something else, I don't know.

What I mean is that IE7 stops responding after I give the go ahead to download, even if I kill the Win Firewall and set internet security option to minimal. Firefox does not seem to do anything...

I didn't have any problem in IE7 and I'm using the Vista Firewall and standard settings.

And I meant Active-X, not XML.

I now found it doesn't work in the 64bit version of IE7 but you should only have that(and the 32bit version) if you have a 64bit Vista. Works fine in IE7 32bit.

I have 64bit. I found out how to get it to work, apparently. Just give the go ahead on IE7 and leave the computer alone for 15 minutes. Appears to work fine. Although one thing that puzzles me if the fact that SRL appears to be misreading the power of my Video Card. It says I only have 64 mb vid RAM when I have well over 500.

Thanks, btw.

It takes just a few seconds here, check your IE shortcut whether it leads to "program files"(IE 64bit) or "program files (x86)"(IE 32bit), I didn't let it run on the 64bit one but like I said, took only seconds in 32bit.

edit: Doesn't seem to work in 64 bit at all so I guess the problem lies elsewhere.
