well.... I have installed it on an Intel processor - and it worked fine. I did an AMD processor and it 'effed up windows update. It would download the updates, but fail the installation. I found the fix EASILY by Googling the problem and had to re-register a DLL

All in all, it is OK... I have three machines I need to do here at the house. My primary workstation at work is working fine - no problems.
