QUOTE(hao @ Jul 28 2007, 10:45 AM) I'm using Home & Student 2007 as it's still within my budget. If it's out of my budget, no choice but to go with the alternative one, the ori one doesn't come cheap. You meant on your current new laptop?  For me, it's still a little expensive. |

You bought a Performance 1520 and that's why it comes with Office Home & Student 2007.How's this office suite? Is the same as the Professional version? Any stripped features on the MS Word/Excel/Powerpoint? This post has been edited by David83: Jul 28 2007, 11:30 AM |

Outlook/Publisher/Access are not that useful for an average home user or Student. That's pretty make sense.I don't use Outlook till I started to work. Last time, I think Outlook Express that comes with IE5/6 is pretty handy and did its job well. |

Yeap, until now the only time I used Access is during Alpha year, under Computer Application subject. Since then, I never touch it again. As for Outlook, never use it before but if I'm forced to use it, I'll use Thunderbird instead I don't use Outlook till I started to work.

I am not sure they install any dirver in it.How many times you try reinstall vista business ? Maybe some error occur when installing vista business.Try to call dell at monday.but when i using the home basic cd from dell.. it can successfully install n play with it.. i think tomoro should call to dell. mayb d installation cd from dell included some driver specify for the laptop? haha. i dunno. QUOTE(ahaha @ Jul 28 2007, 01:01 AM) tomolo call dell cannot help kua the technical no open on weekend la fren... btw no one buy brown meh all bright colour onli... me onli one like espresso?? I can't make sure 100% all driver will work well.As for not , it's still not safe to install XP where more of the driver doesn't listed at their 1520 driver menu.Those pack are taken from previous Dell laptop model piece by piece which use the same hardware set.kingmax i blur liao lo... ok let me get this correct 1st... i have yet to do anything with my Vista. plan to change to XP onli not dual. already download the drivers from ur earlier reply. so if wan to change to XP what to do 1st?? p/s soli le I 1st time use laptop ask me desktop no problem le but laptop... a little headache... Just try and play around with Vista until a full set of driver is release.If you really plan to change to Xp , quite a lot of work need to be done. If you don't mind I ask , Why you plan to install window XP ? software compatibility issue or not familiar with vista skin ?

Depends whether are you in a rush or needs to install the application for your usage.If you really need to use the software to do your daily works report or college assignment then go for the Goal.or at least wait for Vostro to come out with its XP version and take its drivers? or just go for goal right now? Frist , I'd suggest you to call for Dell tech to assist you installing window XP.Actually there are some forumer that successfully install XP , maybe you can pm them.I haven't get my laptop yet so I can't provide precise guidelines , sorry about that. Mostly those important driver had been uploaded such as wireless , chipset , graphic driver and etc.You'll be able to run your laptop with less driver problem but not fully functional though.I found some step install window XP by some other forums but haven't tested it myself , that's why I can't actually provide full process installing support if anything goes wrong.Sorry about that  Added on July 29, 2007, 3:13 amMaybe this would help http://apcmag.com/5485/dualbooting_vista_and_xp This post has been edited by kingmax: Jul 29 2007, 03:13 AM |

If you don't mind I ask , Why you plan to install window XP ? software compatibility issue or not familiar with vista skin ? My arriving point is whether there's a need to use all of Pro software Word/Excel /Powerpoint/ Outlook with Business Contact Manager/Publisher/Access.Lets having a random calculatation.Assuming Rm594 to RM 600 divide by 6 software which equal to RM100 per application.Do you actually use 5/6 of it at lease once a week ? Indeed not much user pefer using legal software because price/per usage isn't equalvelent .The maximun future proof you should invest should be 3 years , not too much.

QUOTE(zuying1985 @ Jul 29 2007, 11:24 PM) too fast// cant even c.. <1 sec.. jz a splash screen then restart oredi Means you can't even enter window ? Here and try this.1. Go to safe mode at vista When you are enter at window vista safe mode Start > right click My Computer icon > Properties > Advanced tab > Settings button under Startup and Recovery > remove the check mark next to Automatically Restart Then restart again at normal window vista.If BSOD comes out , write down the error example "STOP: 0x0000001A" For more refer here http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/346230 2. Go to safe mode at vista When you are enter at window vista safe mode Go C:\Windows\Minidump\ (not sure whether it save there) .Copy all the minidump Post here , or install a minidump analysis on other XP or vista computer and analys it .( http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/devtools/deb...ng/default.mspx ) You can even post at http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/346230 if you don't understand what it say. |

If yes , enter into window XP and copy the minidump from vista business. |
