    Couple of things to keep in mind with Vista....

    The vista UAC... the program files folder can only be written to by a program with administrator rights. If you keep your pic files in your documents folder you should have more luck.
    Also if you want MCS to launch a programmer that lives in the program files foder, MCS will have to be ran as administrstor.

    The point about the long file names can be an issue with some programs/programmers and I also came across a compiler that could not launch because the path had spaces in it.

    Take a look at my signature for what I am running with no problems/work-arounds.
