i think SP1 got some user interface improvement, but im not very sure, for those who havent have SP1 or newly installed vista pls comfirm lol,
eg Volume properties, and Folder tree view. ![]() ![]() and the build in image viewer still suck as usual, it will make ur JPG images look worse(kinda 8bit GIF compression) than before LOL good job macrosoft |

QUOTE(dinozilla @ Mar 21 2008, 04:39 PM) skeptical about defaultname365...hahah... if u are using vista right now, open task manager, then u should see the similar things if u have superfetch enabled(its enabled by default).in fact....look at the task manager shot Memory 2045 Cache 1825 Free 5 Which one is fake right now???? without it the Free memory would be larger. |

regardless how many video memory u have, u will still get 3.25GB(3325MB) if u have 4Gb of physical memory installed on 32bit of vista.
and it will reduce further if u are using on-board VGA. |

QUOTE(vincentlaw @ Mar 24 2008, 10:47 PM) as u wish ok it seems only nvidia 8 series user can use up to 3.5gb on 32bit OSim not sure how can u get 3.25gb but im pretty sure it is cause by the rest of ur hardware..... or maybe settings.. anyway ur statement is a wrong statement... as for mine... 4 x 1,024mb = 4,096mb...... 4,096mb - 512mb = 3,584mb........ but im still wondering why 2mb missing from dxdiag... the everest is the correct value.... maybe 2mb use for BIOS or sumthg like that while ati user only can see 3.2gb, again please prove im wrong lol |
