Google Chrome Needs More Desktop Testing
Google Chrome is barely a day into beta, so I don’t expect it to be perfect. I do, however, expect it to run.

You’re probably the only one on the entire planet to have that much difficulty installing a straightforward-install app like Chrome.
It’s outrightly misleading to leave a statement like “I’ve wasted a whole morning just trying to get the thing to work” without caveat or qualification. It gives the impression that Chrome is a bad product, which it is not.

Hi,
I’m using windows xp sp2. I installed google chrome this morning. It worked great. Then I decided to upgrade to sp3 and chrome stopped working. It simply wouldn’t run. I rolled back to sp2 and it started working again. Not sure what the issue is, but I’m guessing there’s a conflict with sp3.
I’ve been following Chrome discussions and there are a lot of installation problems that comes with it. Mike here is not alone, so I do not think it is right to say:
Kev, who replied just above me, also reported the same thing. Although I do not know how to revert back to SP2 that fast 😛 (How did you do that Kev?)
Anyway, I am using SP3 but never had problems. My anti-virus is NOD32. I’ve read in other discussions that Chrome is having issues with certain Anti-Virus and related applications, and yes conflicts.
