Hi,
I got X64 version of Vista Beta 2 Buil 5384.
Some days ago a lost my Internet Explorer internet connection. Usually I use 32bit version of that (flash etc.) but now it does not work. (by the way.. wich is default IE? i think sometimes it opens 32bit version in links.. sometimes not)
I installed Daemon Tools (64bit) program to Vista, but after restart, drivers caused blue screen. After that I selected "safe mode" but same result. Then "last know good configuration" and that let me in again. I think, that was the time after internet connection was not fully working anymore.
I got nForce4 (Abit Fatal1ty AN8SLI) connected to zygel, and it was working fine for week. (XP works fine)
I did some testing and find out that 32bit programs does not work, and even the DNS is not working for them..
Internet Connection: ftp (command prompt) OK (64bit) Windows Mail (news) OK (64bit) Internet Explorer Not (32bit) Internet Explorer Ok (64bit) Windows Live Messneger Not (32bit)
32Bit Program [11:13:37] SmartFTP v2.0.996.29 [11:13:38] Resolving host name "koti.mbnet.fi" [11:13:40] Unable to resolve host name. [11:13:40] Active Help: http://www.smartftp.com/support/kb/index.php/81 [11:13:40] Cannot login waiting to retry (30s)...

So, I have installed my network drivers again etc.. but that does not hit the right place.

Lost internet connection in 32bit programs
Just a quick thought; did you install the right chipset drivers? If that's an Nvidia chipset you're in luck because they have beta (good beta) drivers especially for Vista.

Links from 32-bit programs open in IE32 and from 64-bit programs in IE64. If IE64 connects and IE32 doesn't, it is often related to the Nvidia firewall. Install and uninstall. >
Huh,
I tryed Microsoft Beta Client but of course it is 32bit programs so I can't report bug before reinstall. (bad think is also, i dont know exaclty how to reproduce)
Anyone idea where to try? I looked in Wow6432Node\ rekistery but didn't find anything fixable. I dont know much about 32bit emulation.
