Problem: Vista Compatible Perfect Disk


Hi Friends:

Watch out for PerfectDisk 8. Do the upgrade. Here is what Raxco says:

"During the PerfectDisk 8 Vista certification testing process, Raxco’s development team uncovered a bug within a component of Windows Vista that could potentially cause hard drive corruption. Raxco has already reported this bug to Microsoft and Microsoft is working to resolve the issue. Raxco has designed PerfectDisk 8 build 50 to specifically work around this issue.


How do I get PerfectDisk 8 Build 50?

* If you are running PerfectDisk 8 on Windows Vista, it is critical that you update to Build 50. You can do this by clicking on PerfectDisk and selecting Run as administrator and then click on Help and then select Check for Updates.
*For non-Vista versions of Windows, run PerfectDisk, click on Help and then select Check for Updates.
*To redownload a purchased PerfectDisk 8 installation, follow the instructions in the email receipt that you received when you purchased PerfectDisk.

If you have any questions for the Raxco Technical Support team, please contact them here. For any questions pertaining to your original order, please contact Raxco Customer Service at sales@raxco.com and provide as much information about your order as possible.

Thank you,

PerfectDisk Product Management"

There's no updates for the evaluation copy of PD8, so if anyone is running the Vista final version, the best advice I can give is to either purchase PD8 or stick with Vista's defrag application...but not the PD8 evaluation.

Darn. Yes, I would be afraid of using the evaluation product now too.

Perfect Disk is now Vista Certified. Be sure and update if you have not done so and are running Vista. Here is part of what the Company's President said today:

"We started the New Year off on the right foot by getting PerfectDisk V8.0 Vista Certified. This means the Vista early adopters can run PerfectDisk with the same assurance they had with the Windows 2003 Server and Windows XP Certified versions of the product.

Vista represents some significant challenges to software vendors and we are very pleased we were able to move PerfectDisk to the new operating system and meet the stringent certification criteria."
