Organizations and enterprises benefit from less downtime, fewer IT hassles, and greater productivity.
Reliability: From prevention through recovery
Windows Vista detects hardware problems before they occur; reduces the frequency of incidents in which applications stop responding or the PC needs to be restarted; and automatically recovers from startup and service failures. How do you benefit? No data loss, no frustration, and no downtime. • Security: Defense in depth

Installation is more reliable and takes advantage of built-in imaging technology and tools. Upgrades from earlier versions of Windows are clean installations that allow you to preserve user data and settings.
Performance: Fast and responsive
Windows Vista delivers improved performance where you’re sure to notice it. Enjoy the faster startup time and low power consumption of the new sleep state. In many cases, Windows Vista is noticeably more responsive than Windows XP on identical hardware. • Management: Greater control and better tools

Sounds hot. I currently used windows xp myself and love its stability. So Windows Vista is even Better, wow. However, I hate the "Activation " process though.
I mean, i think when you buy a sofware you can install a copy on one computer, but you can also have the mobility to decide to install it on another computer and delete the software from the old computer.
I mean, that would still only be using the software on one computer; and the rules is Terms is not break. Right?
windows vista is 32bit, windows xp x64 is for 64-bit. there's probably a function where the optimize it for your 32bit or 64bit processor. anyways i say it looks nice, but it's power consuming...so renderers and gamers may get a loss in performance.
Ive already got vista...You need a good pc to get the full potential out of it though. It's basically XP with a new GUI lots of eye candy and power tools. The layout it nice though but i hate how programs on the start menu are organised. FI your going to get vista don't get the home basic as that doesn't have the glassy black aero theme. I would suggest if your just going to use vista for work etc gete the Home Professional as you don't need a super fast PC to run it. Im running Business and its got all the features of ultimate except Games and Media Centre
For those of you that have or have used Vista, I would like to hear your opinions. Thus far, I haven't seen anything that is convincin enough for me to buy it. What can it do that XP can't? Besides, I'd have to go and buy a whole new computer to use it. It's supposed to take a ton of processing power.
The proper installation of Vista in my humble opinion. I'm not going to even bother installing that piece of junk - all it brings to the table ends up being essentially a waste of space and processor ticks(the security updates are of no matter - they'll be breached in a matter of time, and not patched soon enough). I'm just going to run all my applications through WINE when Slackware finally comes out with a 64-bit version just to escape the bloat.
Ya i will eventuallly get windows vista. i heard that they had some security problems, so im going to wait a while before i upgrade. it looks really nice from those pictures. ill probably do it sometime soon.

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

However, serious problems might occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure
that you follow these steps carefully. For added protection, back up the registry before you modify
it. Then, you can restore the registry if a problem occurs. For more information about how to back

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....
Ever wish that you could legally install an operating system that is as familiar as Microsoft
Windows, without having to learn the arcane intricacies of Linux, and without having to pay the
exorbitant licensing that Micro$oft charges? Did I mention doing it legally ? I don't
mean making use of any form of keygen, serial, crack, etc. Is this possible? How many old Pentium 2
systems with 64MB of RAM and an 8GB hard drive got stuffed into your back cupboard without an
operating system license when Microsoft brought in the Microsoft Genuine Advantage program? W....

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....
Wow and I thought this one website was joking around that Microsoft plans to do one more Windows
Operating. I don't know if Windows 7 will be the last one or not but the project goes by the
code name Midori and it is based on the Cloud computing concept, which by the way Dell is trying to
copyright this name for. All I know about cloud computer is that it will be internet based
operating system meaning that buying CD's based software could end. Heck we are already seeing
it in which yo ucan download full license software without hte use of a CD (legally). Rig....
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....
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

I know that there has been many at times, when for some reason or the other, people would want to
disable the ability of Windows XP to boot into safe mode. Even though that this is not a very thing
advisable thing to do, but still, people, due to some reasons best known to them would always want
to do this. The other day, a friend of mine who works in (manages is the right word) a cyber cafe
was heads over toes, trying to figure out to to disable the safe mode boot in Windows XP. His
reason..... customers are hacking into their computers and browsing free of charge by b....

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, ....
Microsoft have decided to come up with a new image format to add to the common JPGs, GIFs and PNGs

colour formats for printing and displaying High-quality lossy or even lossless compression
Really efficient decoding for numerous resolutions For more features, visit

Recently I've been getting sick of connecting to so many accounts on so many different clients.
It's troublesome to maintain so many accounts/programs. I liked using Trillian for a while but
it took too much processor memory and it can't connect to Skype or Googletalk (which I
haven't downloaded, but will do so when I find a suitable Adiumlike program). Does anyone know
of an IM client which supports all the major IM protocols? That would be MSN, Yahoo, AIM,
Jabber/Google (well, Skype too but I guess it's optional). I've looked around the plac....

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
