Vista 64 bit

Has anyone had any problems with any of the Stardock programs on Vista 64 bit as opposed to 32 bit?

So far DesktopX won't load, Cursor FX shows an error on start up or change of cursor, then loads anyway, BootSkin won't even download onto my machine, and there's a couple .NET updates from Windows Update that fail to download, too. Never had these problems before.....

And I just found out Cursor FX won't download new cursors, either.

Sounds like you have something going on there. CursorFX should be fine without a proble, not downloading at all sure doesn't sound like a compatibility issue, though I don't personally use bootskin.
I recomend you uninstall Impluse and reboot. Then reinstall, reboot and try to download again.

Desktop X and Curser FX should work, and instead of using Bootskin use Bootskin Vista.
Also just in case you haven't installed it yet, download and install the latest directX from Microsoft. Not sure if Stardock programs need it but I'm sure you'll run across something that will.

I've had very little issues on Vista 64 bit. There are supposed to be some Object Dock Pro problems but I havent seen them.
