Tip: Upgrade Advisor and WinSAT Aurora

Some persons last week were having issues running the Upgrade Advisor BETA for Windows Vista relating to a missing WinSat.exe. Open Command Prompt type CD C:\Program Files\Microsoft\Windows Vista Upgrade Advisor, then type "winsat.exe aurora"
You should then see the beautiful Aurora. :) -- -- Andre Windows Connected | http://www.windowsconnected.com Extended64 | http://www.extended64.com Blog | http://www.extended64.com/blogs/andre http://spaces.msn.com/members/adacosta

Or, just move the winsat.exe file into the System32 folder, then type in at Run > winsat aurora .... that's it :o)

The Upgrade Advisor itself (which calls on winsat.exe) will tell you about your system.
The aurora switch when run as Andre described from Command Prompt will give you some beautiful eye candy ;)
