I am using Windows Vista on a nearly new ASUS CG5290 with an Intel I7 920 CPU and an nVidiaGTX260 graphics card.

Any ideas, the tech boards either don't know or haven't answered yet. I have some hints that Google has issues with Vista but doesn't everything?

There is also a very vague idea I've heard that Google Earth was somehow incorporated into some other Google function, possibly Google Maps, but there is nothing about that on the GoogleEarth download page.

Ideas? Thanks very much
