Vista advantages?

Okay from what i've heard vista is not worth your money and you should better keep your pc windows xp.

Since im totally noob with vista, what does it improve so far? I've only heard complaints about it so why did they launched this?

well it just launched so dont expect everything to work, the main reason you want vista is Dx10. you see cryssi and bioshock are dx10 so those are 2 excellent reasons to want to get vista. Also the drivers are now stable enough to warrent a full switch to vista in my opinion, I dont have much trouble with vista at all. Oh and if you dont wana spend 200 on vista ultimate well their other ways to get it aka torrents. filmography

Nothing has improved, in fact it's crap. And DX10 is soooo slooow.BounceDK

Hrmm.. Because I love the new additions that were made for XP compared to 98, and of course the stability was greatly improved. The windowsy settings were a lot more accessable. Vista doesn't have anything? Nothing at all? 

vis·ta   /vista/ Pronunciation Key - Show Spelled Pronunciation[vis-tuh] Pronunciation Key - Show IPA Pronunciation -noun 1.a view or prospect, esp. one seen through a long, narrow avenue or passage, as between rows of trees or houses. 2.such an avenue or passage, esp. when formally planned. 3.a far-reaching mental view: vistas of the future.

So apprently you will be able to see though a row of trees, Become and Avenue or passage when formally planed and have a far reaching mental view =D

Can you explain further? Or is it just simply a USB plug that you insert into your groin that feeds wonderful emotions that cannot be explained? 

I have purchase Vista for dirt cheap, and will be dual-booting this Summer.

It would be REAL nice to hear from PC gamers running Vista - I don't want to hear you parrot other people's criticisms of Vista. I want first person accounts of PC Gamers' experiences with the new OS that we will all eventually be upgrading to.

Well I've had it for ten years, and it's just terrible. The games all run slower.. the few that run! Compatibility issues, can't run any games, direct X explodes every so often and my computer is constantly crashing. The only reason I still have it is because of that USB plug thing I was speaking about above. 

I've been using Vista for a few months now and it's not nearly as bad as people say it is. 

For one, it's suprisingly stable for a new OS and much more secure as well, largely due to UAC. Desktop performance is faster than XP probably due to Superfetch and better management of unused RAM (that's why it uses much RAM when idle).  As for gaming, I haven't noticed any performance loss in my games (I've only tested Oblivion, R6 Vegas, STALKER, FEAR and Far Cry).

AY MEN! 

All gimmicks, no advantage (DX10) yet. Lame DRM, 523971 confirmations for just a few simple actions. Not worth it.

Yet.

i will build a new computer and install Vista 64 on that probably sometimes late this coming week, i will use a dual boot system with xp so im sure i can get all my games running, but will of course first try them out on Vista. i will post any impression of the games running or not on vista fair and square.  

Horrible performance, horrible sound, horrible drivers, horrible software support. It's just .. horrible BounceDK
