Vista Issues

[Th0r]

On a Vista note Service Pack 1 for Vista was meant to be released this month but...
Theyve delayed it.
It has an upgraded version of Direct X10 [10.1] included.

I've had a Vista PC at my house since August and I've had no major crashes. The only crashes have been down to power problems, and a glitch with the wireless adapter.

Evidently you're doing it wrong. What's your vista rating?

Aero isn't going to need .4GHz, .5GB RAM, and an updated video card to run.

It's Aero coupled with a bunch of other features that are meant to last the next few years. It wrecks hell on resources now, in a few years, it'll barely be a glitch on the radar. Much like desktop wallpapers and icons are now.

Remember when graphic intensive wallpapers used to wreak hell on graphics cards and RAM?

On top of that, it's crashed three times in the last week. XP didn't crash the entire time I had it.

Did you install it yourself? Or did you buy it pre-loaded? Did you build the machine yourself? Or did you buy it pre-built?

I hate to support M$, but did you install antivirus software or just start visiting websites randomly while unprotected?
