Is AOL 9.0 (not 9.5) compatable with Vista SP1?
I installed 9.0 from the CD (not 9.5) and once it was done installing, it said:
"America Online will now install the files required for you to connect to the service. Your computer will need to be restarted. Close any open programs, then click Yes. If you click NO, the installation will not be complete and you will be unable to connect to the service."
[Yes][No]
I clicked yes and I was told ACSsetup was trying to access my system, so I said OK. However after I did that, seemingly nothing happened. I left it for about 20 minutes (Core2 Duo with 2GB RAM), but nothing happened. I tried restarting the computer, but afterwards when I tried to run AOL, I got the same message with the same behavior.
Is there an inherent incompatability, or am I just not waiting quite long enough?
Thanks all!
