I too, just received the same error trying to install CF8 on Vista Premium. I have disabled all firewalls (norton) including windows generic firewall and I still I'm seriously thinking of just partioning my hard drive and installing XP on it but I think I'll try installing cf8 on my apache server and see if it

Retail Version?
Specifically, I was thinking of three partitions -- Vista, applications, and data. 1. Will partitioning degrade performance. No. 2. How much should be allocated to a Vista partition to get maximum speed. Since you are using NTFS partitioning will NOT affect speed. Your premise that partioning the drive will affect

Partitioning the hard drive
I will recommend that you dual boot XP and Vista for now. It is a very easy thing to do if you have not done it before but if you have Vista already installed it would involve a format of your system (unless you know how to use some of the advanced disk partioning tools which is something I will not go into here).

Why Vista Install Problems with SATA Drives & SATA Raid?
But with the help of the excellent Mandriva partioning tool, I was able to rescue it, and continue the install without too much of a problem. I probably WON'T be upgrading to Vista, and may opt to just go totally Linux. I've nothing much against Windows, either, apart from it's poor security record,

Best Way to partition for dual boot XP
They are willing to give me a VISTA 15 instead of the wireless system if I wish. Can the vista-15 be partioned? Can it have multiple keypads? $30.00 per month for 36 months to include monitoring My home is a bi-level, the lower level may eventually become a basement suite, therefor partioning would be required.

Network Ext HD Revisited ;-)
I've seen Vista on a dozen different computers none of which have any problems with the modems installed. I do not have a 64 bit OS installed on any of them because of press poor 's partioning software made things worse. So I built a new PC using a motherboard with onboard video configurable up to 256mb of RAM.

Can I install Vista on external drive?
I also have the luxury of an extra slot in my motherboard and a free hard drive laying around to test linux flavours out as a dual boot option without messing with the C: drive partioning, so I am not doing the live CD method either. If you are not sold on Windows Vista, you need to begin scoping out alternatives.

Yea, just get Gparted (free Linux partioning tool) and have it destroy the partitons on the external HDD. Don't use Gparted to format the HDD though. Just do that in Vista instead. http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php You can also get Gparted and many more useful tools on the Ultimate Boot CD.

I don't have enough experience with Vista to reply to your question, but I'd like to comment on the structure that you apparently like.
