I already installed Vista Beta 2. The speech recognition is awesome! I can even move the cursor using my voice! Amazing! thumbup.gif But I'm experiencing this problem, the microphone setting. Sometimes the mic setting I have to enable it manually in order to use it (the Exclusive Mode).

So, in the end, is Vista worth to use? Does it still have the normal problem, hang and crash?

My experience so far (for vista beta 2) no smile.gif

got a problem oso when install vista. lost my audio driver n my system always hang.. now change back to xp.

What you mean you lost your audio driver? Have your try install the audio driver manually (through the device manager) ? For the 1st time I try using the autorun from the cd installation but then failed (somewhat Vista cant install it, unknown error). By now Vista detect my sound driver as SoundMax (built-in audio driver by the mobo). But still cant hear the sound. As I mentioned just now, I try install through Device Manager by removing the SoundMax. I browse the Audigy software & install it (under the Sound, video & game controllers). It work thumbup.gif

Vista is NOT finished. Noone is forcing you to use the beta.

[EDIT] Also, RAM is cheap nowadays. 2GB RAM will possibly be a norm by the time Vista is released.

You rite man. Im using 1GB ram now. I can see the lag sweat.gif & Im planning to upgrade 2GB+ icon_rolleyes.gif

thanks a lot. now burning and will try it later when format my computer. laugh.gif i got 1G of ram. i heard there is lag even though i got 1G of ram eh?
*
If you running a few programs such as YM, WLM, Firefox, iTunes/Winamp, there will be no lag. Some programs that belongs to WinXP are unappropriate/unsuitable for Vitsa & this will cause lag. You might want to disable appearance setting to boost up performance icon_rolleyes.gif

can someone pls explain to me about these stuff in details??

about the processor, it is 1 GHz in terms of FSB or the normal GHz
e.g Pentium 4 2.8 GHz/800 MHz..which one suits the requirements?the 2.8 GHz or 800 MHz??
*
It is in term of processor speed, not the FSB.
IIANM, the 800MHz is the processor speed (eg. Pentium 3). This is the most 'cikai' spec that able to run Vista.

If 800MHz is the at least requirement, that means Athlon 64/FX/Opteron is the spec. So, it's not the FSB.

Correct me if Im wrong.

Firewall: Windows Vista Beta 2 Software Compatibility List
Creative : Windows Vista - Driver Availability Chart

There are 3 working firewall softwares in the software compatibility list. Try which suits you best. It seems your sound driver not listed in the chart. Try install it manually (read my previous post).
