[QUOTE="Lach0121"][QUOTE="Johnny_Rock"][QUOTE="Lach0121"][QUOTE="LILSMUCK"] Any Vista fans should pick up August PC Magazine. Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer said "we can never let this happen again" regarding Vista. That's why they are in a hurry to push out "code name" Windows 7.
I have a duel boot computer...games are better in XP. It is easy to figure every thing out in Vista because it is not all in code form like XP, but it takes more memory to do anything in Vista.

games are better on xp if your running low ram. some game require you to have vista, and vista isnt that bad, xp had just as many problems when it launchedTwo games require Vista... TWO.
Vista IS that bad.
XP never had this many problems at launch. I got XP the month it launched and was hysterically happy with it from the get go.
bs xp had alot of problems on launch, and wait till mid next year, you will see more vista only games, and not to mention when xp launched it crashed the CIA infastructure, so dont tell me xp was all fine and dandy when it launchedvista is only bad because people think it is because they try to install it on lower-to mid end pcs/... thats the main reason.
Remind me of these problems you speak....
And I have Vista on the Core2Duo Laptop in my sig, which is NOT a low end PC like you say.
I'm so tired of these MS fanboys....
woah watch it dont assume, first of all im no fanboy, second of all i wasnt even referring to your pc. or you in general with that last comment. thats why i used the word people, not you. finally, 90% of all OS when first launched had problems, vista had problems im not denying it didnt, im just saying so did xp, and ME, and 95, etc. xp wasnt really that great an operating system till service pack 1, and 2. but in turn i would not have vista without service pack 1, because it too was crap. and no your pcs are not low end, niether is mine :), well my one for music production is, windows xp, cause for music using vista is stupid, atleast until more compatibility issues are met, and im talking about making and recording music not listening to just to clarify, and that pc is a single core pentium4 3ghz, with only 1 gig of ram, but my gamming pc you can read in my sig. and it is a high-end machine, maybe not top-of-the-line, but i can upgrade anything i want really, but for a high-end machine and the price, couldnt of done better in price unless i went with ati, and theres nothing wrong with ati, just i prefer nvidia. but for gamming i choose vista for dx10, and next years dx11. and other reasons, one being more vista only games will come out. and ill be upgrading from 4gig of 800mhz sli-ready ram, to the 8gig, and once quad core becomes being used in games, ill upgrade, but for now dual will ppreform just as well, its more based on the cpu-speed than how many cores in gamming... for now, but a single core is just not strong enough for todays games. and ill upgrade to the 9800gx2 in sli, here in about 7 months, unless better deal comes out then. but anyway im just rambling on, i just wanted to clarify things, so dont call me a fan boy, i mean who am i gonna go with, sony? lol, or nintendo? no, mac lmao, no so who is left????? so backwards compatabliliy has been a problem with most OS at launch, not to mention normal OS bugs, that later get fixed or tweaked with patches and updates. but no one had as many problems as ME did, when it came to the networking side. though i do have a question for you are you running a single 8800gt? and who is it made by, lol im just curious, mine are both bfg. and what games do you play? and how long have you been gaming,...fact is im just tired of all the fanboy crapp on here too, not to mention all the IP-bully wannabes, and know it alls, and self proclaimed messiahs, lol ok that last one lol little too far, but look friend, im just trying to give myself a reason to even remotely look at these forums anymore, since its filled with "said above" so if your still interested, i play fps games, flight sims(though it has been a long time) not really any racing anymore, i dont really get into the sports games, i like rpgs, mmos, fps, dungeon, hack and slash, and rts, like command and conquer, blood, duke nukem, shadow warrior, diablo, starcraft, red alert, james bond and whatnot, , i have been gamming for 22+ years, and i have a feeling i will never stop. just developers need to step up, and the publishers need to but out, its the music business all over again.
