I used Vista in the office and found it terrible.
I went back to XP and it doesn't blue screen but it freezes a lot.
Your hardware is fked.I went back to XP and it doesn't blue screen but it freezes a lot.
HTH
(Seriously XP 100% stable since birth on any kit I've had, Vista only complains when I "hot pull" USB devices it's trying to use...)
You can't blame the OS for your hardware choice.

What I will never, ever understand is why people get excited over their PC not crashing?
If my Mac crashed, I'd be livid. I take it for granted that it doesn't.
I don't think he is excited about it - but certain people perpetuate the myth that windows bluescreens all the time. I also take it for granted that windows does not crash but I realise in some instances if configured incorrectly it may like any OS.If my Mac crashed, I'd be livid. I take it for granted that it doesn't.

You understand that it's a yearly charge. So if you don't pay up each year you'll be running illegal software.http://www.itproportal.com/www/news/article/2009/1...

Your'e lucky, if you had Office 2003 and tried to install it then Outlook would bomb out completely until you installed SP3 for Office. That took me a good half an hour to work out. None of my other software works either, but the actual system looks good.Edited by steedy27 on Friday 23 October 20:55
