Windows Vista=the suxor
 

OMG I'm having sooooo many issues with this new friggin OS...im gonna end up going back to winxp in the next few days more then likely.

You upgraded? Let me be the 1st to say

That figures. I hate being the first to try newer technology because of the bugs like that. Is this a production release of vista or are you a beta user?

when i bought my new computer in novemeber i got a rebate for the upgrade and it expires in march, i think ill wait till them to try it lol

Windows Vista is ok, but if you are a gamer, prepare to have many many problems trying to run games on there.. Vista is only good for personal use.

yep im waiting till they work most of the bugs out to upgrade

My machines can handle Vista, but I would need to spend 1k to upgrade all my business software. So XP for me for awhile.

Here are my main issues with it

a. & most important its not cooperating with my tuning software
b. its not cooperating with my flash demo software check out a demo I made of the issues from a. http://www.thetuningdoctor.com/HPTun...graphissue.swf lol it looks like I was in a snowstorm when I made it...looked even worse trying to do a 3d graph video.
c. too many goddamn permissions...it asks me if I want to do something after everything & I can't open up files if its in the program folder...im not sure if theres an easy way around it, but I've try altering my permissions for the entire c: drive & still am having issues so i've pretty much given up.
d. It came with 1/10th the programs that my last computer came with and I didnt really take notice at the time...but basically things like microsoft money, microsoft works, etc didnt come with it...thankfully I have microsoft word/excel & I had money on disk from my last computer so could just carry it over, but its been a complete hassle at this point & im just fed up. This computer is probably 8x more technologically advanced then my old computer with a HD 8x larger, DVD writer, etc & yet my old computer could do demos and they actually worked :rolleyes: just makes me sick to my stomach I paid good money for it & its got so many issues right off the bat, none of them with an easy fix from what I can see.

That link u supplied... lmao wtf ... not only do u need to downgrade back to XP, u need to set ur mouse speed a little higher lmao ... by the time u go to click something halfway across the screen, Vista 2 will be releasing :rofl:

There is a lot of bugs... the main advantage with Vista is its support with DirectX 10 and 64-bit ... i dunno what to tell ya man.. demand ur money back lol

the mouse speed im not worried about thats the flash program itself, it was just a quick demo of the issues i was having so i didnt alter it, but yeah as you can see it was ****ed up.

Did u install the proper drivers for your video card? It may not be compatible with Vista and/or the drivers arent compatible. Updating would be your best bet. That would be my guess.

from what i read its not what it was supposed to be. ill prolly try it in like a few months when most of the bugs are worked out

:lol:.....

im in ur OS messin ur programz

Get a mac. lol I have had one for 2 years and not once has it crashed, froze or any stupid message.

:werd: (see link above you)

yeah i saw it, just thought i would back you up.

MACS are for n00bs.

That shouldn't be the problem, as he bought the system pre-assembled and loaded with Vista from Best Buy. Never hurts to check though.

I used the beta version of Vista for a little while, but didn't care much for it, so I'm sticking with XP for a while more.

Correct.

yeah as Justin stated its a BRAND NEW COMPUTER WITH VISTA PRELOADED

bought it on Tuesday when it officially hit the market.

Thankfully I figured out the issue with my tuning software. Still having issues with my flash stuff...only for video though, taking screenshots works fine.

If Office XP (2003) will work with Vista, I have a copy for you.

yeah it will, 90% of microsoft programs will stil work with vista. dont try running old antivirus tho lol
