Sorry gentlemen-- nothing there. Anyone else?

Did you  install Download Vista SideBar with Gadgets for Windows XP in Win XP SP3

No, Kenny. I just installed the beta on my laptop. The laptop OS is Vista. I got the sidebar fine after installation. I simply clicked it away and didn't know how to get it back. Charyb got me squared away as you can see.

I discovered yesterday evening  that the side bar information is all on on the XP Control panel. Probably on your OS too. Never expected to find it there.

We need a 6.0 manual tout de suite.

Please add your Vista system to your signature.

I would add my Vista system but I'm too embarrassed.

You could say that you have Windows 7 Beta.

I had bought a new Dell laptop just to get Vista. I really wanted to try something different than XP. What a mistake. Early Vista was a nightmare for me. I no longer have that laptop. I purchased one with Windows 7. The soon to be father in law now has that Dell laptop along with my old router. He has had no real problems with it since Vista is older now and the bugs worked out.

Early Vista was a nightmare for me as well and I could not wait to get Windows 7 and purchased it the day it was available on October 22, 2009 as I had my order in as soon as the availability date was announced.

I love XP and so do millions of others. I even have a spare license.

I didn't mention that not only did I want to change operating systems (when Vista was released) but that is when the dual core processors were showing up. The difference between the Pentium 4 processor which is on my XP desktop system and the dual core processor (on both laptops) is like night and day.

BTW, I like XP too. I was just ready to play with a new operating system.
