tha't s just windows prefetch working it's magic. Everybody has teh same thing happening, and no, it's not a problem as Vista is using every available RAM that it can use. Only when RAM usage exceeds 100%, then you have a reason to panic

*ahem*
until 2012 only

Plenty of time. No worries. There's probably new windows or Microsoft might even be dead. LOL.

Worth leh.. Rm450 for Business edition OEM. One hour Rm100. If i student i also go and queue lor..

but it cannot be sold one

who said? you can sell it, just not full licence hehehehe

hi all, i m using laptop, with vista preloaded, but my hdd is onli hav one partition, which is c: , do i hav any method to make partition without reinstall again the os?

try partition magic.

actually my uni also has MS Wow 3days event. i didn't know until the event end lol. heard they give away t-shirts and stuff. but didn't heard any vista copies giveaway..

Just bought 2 unit of Dell E520 + Vista Business Edt to test.
Annoying popup when accessing program inside control panel. Play chess also make the whole system freeze out.
Haven't test out other problem yet..


Will downgrade back to windows XP Sp2 for sure coz Vista business/ultimate edt comes with downgrade rights. And it still able to upgrade back to Vista for future.
If the Vista quite stable for couple month, will be migrate back to it loo.

personally, i fell vista already quite stable. that annoying popup is the infamous UserAccessControl (UAC). disable it in user account setting

All students doing IT/Computing courses at universities and colleges who are part of the MSDNAA program should get free copies of Vista Business and a massive discount in Office 2007. Over here, we can get Office Ultimate 2007 for only RM200. But it's illegal to sell it because they're all Academic licences.

Play chess also it freeze? Then it's ur Dell problem la..

ok guys i have 2 question to ask .

1. gif file won't animate in windows photo gallery . and u need to open it with internet explorer . even if i open it with the default viewer ( windows photo gallery ) , it only show the first frame of the animated gif file . so i actually have difficulties sending gif file to someone since windows photo gallery only takes the first frame into count . anyone solution for this ?

2 . the microphone..even after i tick the +20db boost , my friend still can barely listen to wat im saying . perhaps i need to like shout then only my friend can listen ..such problem did not appear on xp tho =/

1. Windows Photo Gallery integrates its own database for file formats that do not support metadata like PNG, GIF, MPEG and BMP.

I duno, it sounds like it doesn't support png or gif to me..

I already posted a while back la... there are some exploitation by worms on gif files, where it will infect a certain frame of the pic which cannot be detected by AV if it's already in ur PC. Playing it in an web browser will force the AV to detect any intrusion, thus this is why Vista does not preview gif. And I use ACDsee for my image files so this does not pose any problem

partition magic able to use in vista? seems like not support for vista yet, anyone tried b4?

Nope. I think it's incompatible.

PR: The picture in your avatar is u ah? So kawaii neh...

why need it when vista already capable of changing partition size?

I'm new to Vista.Just received two laptops for my office with Windows Vista.As for question above...i've encountered same problem.I've tried both Partition Magic 7.0 & 8.0 and it appears that Partition Magic is not compatible with Vista correct me if i'm wrong.

One more thing...it's kinda shock me...is it normal when i open this laptop (without pressing the power button) it will automatically log in to windows?Those laptops are Dell Inspiron 640m.
