Missed my chance to test this one.

The currently available file on the beta web page wouldn't go into my Vista 
computer so I had to do some system registry additions and font installs 
manually. I'm the sole user, administrator status.

Was thinking it could have been Vista's User Account Control causing the 
trouble, although I don't know why that would affect the system registry 
entries themselves, but not knowing exactly what all it can interfere with I 
just gave up and watched the error messages to know what to fix during the 
install and clicked Ignore to proceed.

I have folders and files in C:\Users\*NAME*\AppData\Roaming\POV-Ray\v3.7, 
different from what was stated so thought I'd mention that for other people 
with Vista. AppData is a hidden folder.

I kept UAC and AV on during all that so I can't say what would have happened 
without those. I believe I might have also needed to make the a change to 
POV-Ray for Windows v3.7  folder(s) to get file writing done by changing the 
Properties|Security to Full access. Did this last night and already 
forgetting that now, sorry, hope I remembered all else right.
