Dont people ever listen! the only problems are with 64bit vista!! 32bit vista has had no problems for me or my friends (except hadrware randomly re-installing itself and making the activation reset, this happened on windows xp aswell, only ever seems to happen to me though :( )

logon screen thing looks nice. Shame i never see the logon screen. Dont have a password, ewveryone is scared to touch my computer incase they break it anyway. Nobody has enough spare cash to fix it >.<

lol you guys are talking like as if you owned windows vista. I have windows vista 64 bit and Ive never had problems with it. Only some minor issues which I was able to fix myself.


You make it seem like you know everything even though you dont even own the product. Its like judging SRO without even playing it. Just looking/reading at the reviews stating the number of bots there are.

Well, if you upgraded from XP to Vista then you would have a lot of problem but you made a computer out of scratch and put vista on it, as long as you picked the right parts that works with your system, you wont have any problem at all.

If you bought a computer with Vista installed on it, you'll have a few problems but not as much.

But for me, Ive never had any serious problems. Only minor issues that I was able to fix and is commonly found in any operating system.

Vista = Dx10 and, most bribed new games run on vista only so that's gay saying wait 6 months for vista. Vista is fine .. just takes getting used too. Go back to when XP got released 8230460239846092863894 people said the same thing .. yet when they go used to it .. was perfect.

Ok I agree vista has a crappy support system and has alot of bugs. But they are all patchable.

Heh I'm on XP tho :roll:
