Hello

Thank you for your feedback. Didn't know that the MSDN Version of Vista SP1
is not "officially", it was clearly declared as a final version!

In this case, I will reinstall Windows XP, still have a backup on the
fileserver. Will probably be faster that removing Vista SP1, and I know that
I can do my work with XP (have already lost so much time with Vista...)

regards,
Franz
