Re: windows vista

My first attempt at installing Vista was an absolute joke. when I did get it installed it ran like a dog, to the point of being hopeless. I know my way round PCs, Different OS's etc and there was nothing I could do to fix it. Speaking to a Microsoft phreak I know who has MSDN even he was surprised just how badly it was running. He lent me one of his disks which I used to reinstall from scratch. Its now useable but slow. This is not a low spec laptop and it feels like I've gone back about 3 years in how it responds i.e. it runs like a P3 700 or so.


You could try a completely fresh install, it may help a bit.

for anyone considering upgrading, I wouldn't just yet.......
