From the start of beta till now, vista still makes my XP boot screen flicker. I wonder why vista would affect my XP boot screen.

My explorer.exe and task manager crashes randomly from time to time...does anyone else have this problem?

even task manager? if explorer some thumbnail is unreadable, but task manager....

uh, whats your vista score?

3.5 overall

4.1,4.5,4.4,3.9,3.5 accordingly

and and say hello to my new friend.

O.o...
is that....uh....what is that actually?

i did not know that the memory dump is an exe ?

...or is it something else?

Huh? My Vista itself flickers when it each time it boot..

photochopped image?

Did you really got that? So, no more blue screen of dead or hang, but new dialog box?

lol, found that image in another forum..

my BSOD only gives a generic blue screen, there doesnt seem to have text like last time.

my harddisk is causing vista to fail...so i found my problem >_>

My office just bought some PCs and notebook preinstalled with windows vista.The problem is that some of our engineering software not compatible with windows vista.Is there anyway that I can run these program or am I eligible to install pirated windows XP?Or maybe we can run virtual XP in vista?

Hope some expert can help me cause cannot do anything with vista install.Someone suggest me to buy windows XP but we already bought Windows Vista....kinda waste of money right?

Try to run it under WinXP SP2 mode, right click the shortcut of the program and u will see compatibility mode. Most of the programs i tried worked beautifully without any problems

Anyone hav problem installing Office 2003 in Win Vista ?

fast and simple question. does vista ultimate require diff hardware specs? i'm currently on *ahem* Home Premium and getting a score of 3.0. want to try *ahem* ultimate. so uhm, i think its possible but will it cause my rig to lag like ballz?

ANSWER: NO

all vista basically same performance except home basic. difference is the extra tools or apps that came with it.

what are the best spects to run vista ultimate smoothly

u can see my specs here, i scored 4.0





i got one question to ask, i got 2 OS, xp and vista.
can i defrag my window vista partition using win xp? cos it will be faster. any side efects?

I remember there was a solution posted here some time ago to fix the "calculating time remaining" but I couldn't find it in this long thread.

Anyone knows a fix to it? I hate waiting for minutes to transfer a few MB of files.

even though it will show the calculating time remaining, but I never encountered that it will take up for minutes then only start transferring, all I see is just wait for few seconds before copying one full DVD. So i just ignore the problem...

try to download some updates from MS might help
