Installing Blackberry Desktop Software on Windows Vista

I'm installing Blackberry Desktop software 4.2 sp2 on windows Vista on
several machines. For some reason the install program takes ages, up to an
hour, and for long periods it seems that nothing is happening. Does anyone
else have this problem and know why it takes so long. No other program has
this issue, and i've downloaded the install files several times.

Unfortunatley I never got to the bottom of it...lots of people are having the
same issues, but RIM don't seem to be addressing it, or will in the next
service pack. I tried a bit of lateral thinking and made it less painfull by
doing several installations at once.

If anyone ever finds a solution to this problem, I would love to
know...working on one computer installing DS V4.2 SP2 and it takes 1/2 hour
minimum per install (some fool decided he would try removing the blackberry
installed standard modem to switch com ports in a tethered modem setup and
had to uninstall and reinstall)...so I have spent 1 and 1/2 hours watching
Vista do nothing! AHHHHHHHH!

I would be curious if the other were working with Vista Basic...

I was just wondering... I just bought a blackberry and when trying to install
the software it gives me some internal error and won't let me install it on
my computer... I was wondering if it is just because windows vista is not
compatible or???? I know nothing about computers and I am so confused... This
is really frustrating!!!

any help would be greatly appreciated!!
