I agree ;) It's called Vista 64bit, SP1 .. Never had the problem with the non-sp version of Vista 32bit.

is this a clean install? if you did an upgrade maybe some security stuff got borked.

I have vista ultimate 64-bit sp1 (technet plus FTW ;) ) and I dont get prompts for studio, spore, or dreamweaver, and I do not need admin rights to make them work.

No upgrade. Upgrades from Microsoft is like Lindsay Lohan, nothing but disease and a mess... never a good thing.
