I dislike it when people bash windows, but don't provide any backup to there statement. It seems like blind thrashing to me. If you've tryed the final release it's awsome. It's not as "buggy" as people say it is. But seeing as how beta is done and over with, and the final is out, I'm closing this thread. Please feel free to make a new topic in regards to the final rel... read more.
I allready tryed new OS "Windows Vista" beta. Did you ? Tell us what you think about it.
Here's what I think. Yee new style looks very nice:transparent windows,new minimize maximaze and close buttons shape and style,new explorer structure,new "start" swystem and afcourse new icons
Like i sayd style is great but there is and many problems with drivers allmost all my devices ware unknowed so I event couldn't connect to the internet
And there is and one more bad thing. This OS eats to much computer recourses. My PC is not weak(1024 Ram, 3GHZ AMD proccesor, Radeon X800 video card) and it still is noe enouth "Task menneger" trafic allways was green to the top.
Final word I think I will wayt for full working version of "Vista" and till then I will keep use old XP
Not that I'm not trusting you, but Windows Vista is currently only available to MSDN developers. I would think a MSDN developer would have better spelling skills and wouldn't exactly have free hosting here.
whyme you don't believe that I allready tryed windows "vista' beta. You think I am layer? Afcourse i am not member of msn developers but I don't lay I realy tryed. I don't know how but my father downloaded it from some ftp
Whoever tried Beta1, let me tell you what Beta 1 in Microsoft means. BETA1 is testing out the basic components and overall structure of the software. No special features, extremly buggy, and unstable to the point where it's like running windows '98 with a ton of DLL's missing.
The Windows Vista Skin is not going to stay the same. There is already more advanced designs that will go into the final version. This skin is used because it's simple... infact if you analize the code, you will see the skin system is the same as windows xp...
Vista Beta1 has already changed 32 times since the release... Beta2 is when you should download it.
If you are reading this, don't bother geting Vista beta1. Wait until 2, because then you can see what vista really has to offer and why it's going to be much faster and much more "simple, yet cuttingly a sense of hi-tech creativity".
nice anagram of vista hmmm i would try but not going to like, but yeah like everyone else going to wait this system out so how well it fares, i think the problem microsft has is that htier employees are doing illegal stuff remember microsoft gets all of its named brand computers made over seas and thus virus central, bill gates got to love the man for trying to make money the easy way, by screwing us over.
Whyme you are wrong about that. There are chosen people that are picked when you sign up from some site and they get to beta test Microsoft Vista Beta 1 for free. The release is supposed to be Tomorrow as in August 3rd. But MSDN people can get it early. So you are half right about him not being a MSDN tester and stole it from bittorent, or P2P software. I also think he stole it too, but hey thats how some people are... But I would wait until BETA 2 comes out. It will be a way better release. But Internet Explorer 7.0 beta is something to try. Its pretty stable and most sites support it! Well thats all i have to comment on Vista. So take my advice wait til Beta 2 to steal it if you have to but this release, its just not worth it.

My computer is 8 years old. I've had a grand total of less then 10 viruses. The most common cause of viruses is porn, so unless you plan on looking up porn 24/7 you really don't have much to worry about. It all depends on what you do. And if you need to look at it, bad enough, don't bash windows, just get a Mac.
Not that I'm not trusting you, but Windows Vista is currently only available to MSDN developers. I would think a MSDN developer would have better spelling skills and wouldn't exactly have free hosting here.
I'm just skeptical, don't mind me. Anyways, Vista stands for:
Viruses. Instability. Spyware. Trojans. Adware.
Get Mac OS X Tiger.
P.S. Moved your topic.
That a great definition Viruses. Instability. Spyware. Trojans. Adware. I am totally agree with this definition....hahaha
Yea man, I test drove Windows Vista Beta myself and I have about the same thing to say About the OS. Right now, I am running Windows Vista Ultimate and guess what man? The OS is dealing with my hardwares. It aint like I have a weak computer though (Intel ® Pentium ™ 4 630 HT 3.40GHz w/2MB OnDie Cache, 1GB DDR2 5300, 400GB HDD space, nVIDIA GeForce 6200 LE w/256MB video memory), but still that aint enough for the OS.
I know that I never had any problems with Win XP performance wise but Windows Vista Ultimate is something else altogether. Ok, I would say the Microsoft really tried where the Windows Aero Graphics effect was concerned but they oughta have thought about the kinda machines that would run the OS.
I read a review the other day which stated that up to 50% of US business machines cant run Windows Vista. Well, if you aint got a high (rugged) performance computer and graphics card, dont think about Win Vista.
The two problems I think Microsoft will have, in terms of Vista's sales when it is first released is that the previous gaps of Windows had a very short gap between hte next release. There's been a huge gap between the release of XP and Vista, so during that period, most people have gone up to XP and are quite happy with it. They'll be thinking, "why should I upgrade when the OS I have now does everything I need?"
The other problem, is that there are few programs which are really memory/cpu intensive. Not many pieces of software (im specifically excluding pc games here btw) fully take advantage of your "brand new Dell XPS" I reckon that with a 1.5ghz 512mb ram pc, you could run just about every program the standard home user needs to run, without any problems, so the home user might be thinking "Why upgrade to Vista or buy a new pc when my current one does everything I need?"
Vista will have a slow takeup but most computers will be probably running it by 2009. Fortunately, Vienna isn't scheduled for release untill 2011, giving Vista plenty of time to gain popularity.
Hi , I dont know what happened but My system restarts after a few Minutes (at max an hour). Can
someone guess what might be wrong. It displays a System Shutdown Timer (initiated by
Administrator) and then restarts after 60 sec. This is an SP2 so I dont think its a blaster. I
have a ZoneAlarm Security Suite and it didn't detect anything. I even Scanned my Windows folder
from Kaspersky using my Second OS (Vista) but that also didn't detect anything . .. Any guesses

Are you bored at work today? Here's a small enhancement to your desktop. Hope you like it. I)
When you have to open any program you have to click "Start" "All Programs" and then choose your
selection from the programs folder. Now how would it be to achieve the same task in just two clicks?
You can save all your favourite program shortcuts in a folder and view that through a tiny arrow
near the system tray. Its very simple. You would tell, "Ya, I almost knew that". Here's how to
do it. a) First create your folder and add the shortcuts you want to access. The f....
Hello. I tried Installing Windows Vista Home Premium today, but when it comes to the part
of the Installation where it says "Your computer will restart several times" my computer restarts
more then 40 times, and never loads after that. After like, 10-15 minutes of it being off, I switch
it back on, and it restores to XP (Witch is good because it wouldn't start up at all). I've
tried installing this 4 times altogether, and nothing. it keeps restarting continuously more then 40
times. The only time it restarts is after the BIOS loads, when switching/restar....
I reinstall (restore) windows almost every 2-3 months. What about you??? Seeing the title some would
say "I do it daily" and some others "How to reinstall?". Let's see the poll results. Linuxers,
see you in other post. Reinstalling windows is a daily chore for the students studying computers.
They have to switch a lot of softwares, compilers etc etc. Windows as we know, will not tolerate a
whole lot of (Un)installations and will ultimately slow down the whole system. This is not the case
with Linux. Just consider this, I installed Red Hat WS 3(the older version whi....
This is an essay I written for a my linux class and I thought I would give my thoughts about how I
compared XP with Ubuntu. QUOTE Windows XP & Ubuntu’s Cold War In 2000 years, there
have been many epic battles, many of which have produced both heroes and villains and many producing
winners and losers. However, in today’s world another cold war is brewing, that cold war is
between Microsoft’s Windows XP and Ubuntu. They will never pull out all the stops and launch
nuclear missiles, but instead will try to provide a whole new world for people t....
Its like a computer in your web browser. http://ajaxwindows.com/apps/windows/content/index.html
It looks good from what i've seen. Like a computer in a window. all files saved on their server,
and so long as you've got internet access (at a decent speed) all you need to do is sign up.
I'm surprised google hasn't done something simmilar, they seem to offer everything else...
Docs, maps, medical records. Other than the major drain on my internet usage (which i use enough of
as it is).......
I share a Windows XP computer with two friends, and we each have our own User Account on the
computer. Recently whenever my friends use the PC, they begin to have problems with it. For no
reason whatsoever, Windows Explorer will crash and close all the current folders that are open. I
went onto their User Accounts to see for myself (with permission, of course), and found that
Explorer would crash any time I right-clicked a File, and would also crash on occasion if I clicked
"File" on the Folder Window's Menu Bar with a file selected. It also happened on rare occasion....
Okay, I've had Vista for a few months now but just recently my Windows Explorer has been having
problems. It says "Windows Explorer has stopped working" and then I click the option restart the
program. I usually have 2 - 5 Explorer windows open and when I click restart the program it closes
all of my windows and opens up My Documents. I usually get this error one or two times a day but
I'm not doing anything wrong. Is this error only happening to me or has it happened to anyone
else. Thanks. ....
One year after the official Vista release , Microsoft is already working on the next Windows
operating system , Windows 7 , also known as Blackcomb or Vienna . Windows 7 Milestone 1 Build 6519
, the first working version of windows 7 , has already leaked to the w a r e z community , but it
doesn't differs much from Vista . The release is set for late 2009 / 2010 . So what do you think
about Windows 7 . Of course that the work on Vista continues , as it's not yet perfect but will
soon be.....

run smoothly on a 1gig ram pc. is this true? i'll be buying a desktop and a laptop in a month

balance. my option is to buy a 1 gig ram laptop and beef up the desktop but i don't want a slow
laptop also. anyone who has an experience on using a vista and a xp with the same softwares. is
there a difference. ....
Hey All What you guys think is the best programming language for Windows Vista? Ive been doing C#
for some months, but im looking for something else, something easier for making fast applications,

So I just installed vista upon the almighty computer, and it worked fine for a day or less. (Bah). I
installed all my drivers and such and went on my merry way. Now all of a sudden it starts freezing
on me. It's completely random, I can find absolutely NO pattern to why it's doing this.
I've reformatted multiple times to make sure it wasn't just a bad install. I've updated
my drivers, they are ALL compatible with Vista. I've read it could be an issue with an April 06
Security update Microsoft released but I have no such update installed. Being a f....
Has anyone actually been satisfied with the release of SP1 for Vista? Does it solve the problems
that we've all griped about? Overview of Windows Vista SP1 From what I'm reading
from that document, I'm actually surprised, appalled, and in a way, now wondering if Vista can
actually be an upgrade. I laughed at: QUOTE Enhances support for high-definition (HD)
drives by adding new icons and labels that identify HD-DVD and Blu-ray drives as HD drives.
That's awesome. I never knew the HD drive that I bought was an HD until SP1. /rolleye....
Well I have been thinking about building a new gaming rig pretty soon and I will be able to spend a
bit more than usual because I already have the essentials( Mouse, Keyboard, Printer, Monitor) but I
have a questions about Vista. I have a nice HP dv9000 laptop that I have had for a couple months
that came with Windows Vista Home Premium. Now what I want to know is there anyway that I can
somehow get that onto a new machine I build as long as I take it off the laptop? I mean I bought the
laptop and if it comes with Vista, or any OS for that matter, I am purchasing the li....
Iam the user of Windows Vista. I gone with Vista because of unavailability of other options. Windows

How to install Microsoft Windows XP automatically As you know, during installing Microsoft
Windows XP, setup asks you several questions about your installation drive, windows serial number,
your language, administrator password, local time zone and … . So that you should sit and answer
above questions. But there is a small tool in Microsoft Windows CD , let's you answer these
questions before installing Windows. 1- Put Windows XP CD/DVD in the CD/DVD in your CD/DVD ROM and
go to following folder: X:\Support\tools\ 2- Copy deploy.cab in your Hard Dr....
Ok, so I've done some looking around trying to see if it's possible I could dual-boot my pc
with Windows XP Home and Vista Ultimate Edition (x64). Well, I know it's possible, but I'm
not understanding many guides I read because many people have mentioned assorted stuff like
requiring two hard drives (I only have one 250GB one), and other assorted stuff like software
I'd need to supply certain space to the two separate partitions. I was thinking of making my
Windows XP be more of the serious partition, and having Vista be the more media-centered one, ....
Before i start i want to make sure you understand this is not a what OS is better this is a what is
better at certain things and your reasons why. I would also like to know more about Linux because
i'm slightly confused on it. Will it mess my computer up if i install it, dont like it, and
uninstall it? OK on with the topic. I own a Mac and work on one for many hours a day, but had
always used a Windows based system since well i was 5 and i remember my father using DOS to run Duke

Hi, We have been seeing Windows Vista Screenshots and from that we can take a look at the new GUI
for Windows. Its called Aero. But i believe it looks more like Linux. Dont you think so. Now the
Windows GUI is no longer unique. The are back with same GUI that other Operating Systems Already
have and Also just take a look at the icons. They are not good at all. Any information about Windows
GUI or you views on it. Please Reply Thank You....

Question to you all, I have a computer running windows XP, now I want to add a "real" DOS
enviroment on the computer (not cmd or dosbox or something like that). So I thought dualboot will
do the trick, but the problem is, if I go on and install dos on my free harddisk, I will have a
problem cause it f*cks up my boot process and windows xp will not start anymore. That I dont
want! Anyone got an idea on how i can install dos so I can multiboot between windows xp and dos
without formatting my windows drive, install dos and then reinstall windows? Any help would be gr....
