Longhorn/Vista: Don't install Daemon Tools on Beta 1

... the Virtual SCSI driver that is installed causes a blue screen at reboot.  What makes it worse is that the Windows Installer service will not start in Safe Mode.  Luckily I was able to disable/uninstall the errant device from the Device Manager instead and remove the software completely after a further reboot.

Even the Microsoft Virtual CD-ROM Control Panel had problems (just silently failing though on mount, no blue screens).  Guess I'll be burning those ISO's back to CD before installing them!
