what kind of issues? I don't have any issues with IE except for Flashget IE plugin crashes whenever I hover my mouse over them...

32bit Vista only 'displays' 4Gb of memory if you have that much. It still uses only 3Gb memory.

so if we change to 64bit Vista it detect 4Gb of memory?

detect and fully use 4GB

sp1. i notice that vista is more stable,my lappy starts up a little sluggish but very fast shutting down (like the laptop very lazy to go to work but like to cabut early for rest.)

other then that i can;t see any noticeable improvement. some games plays better too.

Never really tried Vista until SP1 was released. So far so good with it. I'm very satisfied.

One thing I don't like after SP1 is, Agnitum Outpost Firewall Pro 2009 Build 6.5 intermittently failed to start during startup. It causes drag to my system, and I need to log off and re-log on to make it correct. Nothing much, but it's a little irritating to waste some seconds just to make the thing works.

yes it reports 4gb or more if installed.

it is stable on x64.

another satified user.

sp1 much betta for me ^^

i voted NO... as more of my hardware are having problems detecting...
both my epson cx3500 (multifunction printer) and canon mp140 drivers canot be installed...
tried downloading latest drivers and installing them but still the os wouldnt detect the printers/scanners...
whereas it used to work pre-sp1...

-just passing by......-

Microsoft did warn about more compatibility issues after SP1 has been installed.

Well after switching from XP 32 bit SP2 to Vista 64 bit SP1, all I can say is theres no any weird issues such as claimed by most forummers here. Everything is smooth and fine.

- Copy file no prob
- boot time no prob
- shut down time no prob thou hibernate is better
- all softwares and games have no compatibility issues, heck even my 3D rendering stuff has speedup

I really suggest new users to read and understand your PC specs and list down the softwares you are using to check weather its compatible or not before jumping into the wagon just because u want a Vista OS. Bottom line is I am very satisfy with my genuine Vista

what codec program you use. my klite is lagging?

I used k-lite codec pack, but never lag when playing any video files?

which version? i use both 3.6 and 4.14 same. lags.

4.14 user here, no problem at all.


However, I don't recommend for ppl who are very busy with their lives to upgrade to vista, it took me at least 4 hours to upgrade from XP to vista and plus about 1 hour to upgrade to SP 1, and i haven't included the time needed to clean those temp files, xp directories during transition to vista, and as usual there are still some tweaking to do after upgrade complete. Slower startup is expected but im glad only longer for few secs (around 40-50s).

And I noticed that using Vista definitely need 17'' monitor and above, those icons are freaking bigger than XP even its in minimum size, but overall i'm satisfied with Vista SP1, nvr had any problems or major issues after 2-3 weeks using it.

I used various 3.x and 4.x release, no problem at all. But my WinXP laptop that have 256mb RAM lags when playing MKV files (with HD resolution)...

is your display driver installed? cause that might be the cause. I am using klite 4.14 with no issues

its better than xp... but, kalo hardware x masuk ngan vista mmg vista akan slow.. so hardware kene meet spec vista baru gempaq... so far agu gune mmg best... vista 64 ngan amd athlon 64 x2 4600+.. fu-yoh, mmg laju pc aku...

as for me, I'm very satisfied with Vista SP1. No more crash....huhuhu
