Default I was worried for a second. Using XP and bentley manual needs a little fixin.

I just installed XP and everyone said it would work with all the Audi related programs. Well the new v.2 software didn't work. Complained of a java class error. I remembered hearing of explorer 6 not playing nice. So i went to <a href="http://www.bentleypublishers.com/">http://www.bentleypublishers.com/</a>. Under req. it states working on XP version. EEECK! Luckily there was a <a href="http://www.bentleypublishers.com/ebahn/downloads/update.htm">service pack</A> so i thought what the hell. Well thank your lucky stars it worked. Whew!

Default I still have a problem with XP that I haven't figured out

I have two predominant user profiles that I use in XP. There's my work profile and then my home/school user profile. I loaded their software under the home/school profile, only to find that it doesn't work. The splash screen starts, but doesn't go to the main screen. The kicker is that it comes up fine when I'm logged into my work user profile. Go figure...

maybe someday I'll try and reload it under admin

Default Sounds like it could be a permissions problem.

When the OS was installed which profile was first? Work might be admin/super user and that's why it works there.

Default That's the kicker

They're both admin users, but my home/school profile was first and work was added later. XP was upgraded from 98SE, so there may be something in that.
