What Absolute Junk Vista Ultimate 64 bit OS is
This is my second time around testing Vista ultimate 64 bit and after much
testing I cannot believe what a heap of absolute rubbish this OS is. How many years did it take Microsoft to develop this junk? I have the latest drivers/software/ quad core intel 6700 CPU with a modern motherboard and running 8GB of RAM. Yeah....I anticipate that you are all screaming and tearing your hair out and gnashing your teeth because I have told the truth about this piece of OS junk. Vista Ultimate will not remain stable if you load and use a substantial amount of software on your computer. Yet both 32 bit and 64 bit versions of XP Pro are relatively stable. I am a business man and I can tell you that vista is unreliable and a total waste of money. In fact microsoft should pay anyone to use this piece of rubbish and the amount of time wasted attempting to trace down problems. Vista is much slower than XP Pro and XP Pro 64 to boot up and shut down. I don't care how much you microsoft certificate guys hiss and boo....Vista Ultimate 64 bit cannot compare in efficiency and stability to XP when you load the OS with numerous heavy duty applications, eg Photoshop CS3 etc. Even the CPU company Intel will not run vista on their computers (google it!!) Vista would have to be conidered along with Windows ME as the worse OSes. Cheers Ron

You must not be running much software on your pc with your listed 160GB
Seagate hard drive. I have a total of 4TB internally!! My vista ultimate partition alone is 200GB. Are you running a business on your PC?

If you are running programs/software that is not
64-bit, then you need to use the 32-bit version of Vista. 32-bit and 64-bit Windows: frequently asked questions: http://windowshelp.microsoft.com/Win...c8a701033.mspx -- Carey Frisch Microsoft MVP Windows Desktop Experience - Windows Vista Enthusiast --------------------------------------------------------------- "Ron" wrote in message ...

(could be wrong) apart from that its a nice rig.... not looking for a flame war mate but many use the OS with no problems... -- skunksmash E2180 @ 3.2ghz arctic cooler pro 775 4GB gskill HZ @ 1050mhz Asus P5K premium 160GB seagate 7200 coloursit 600w psu PNY 8800GT 512mb

You're running a business on a gaming PC? Sure, it's easy to do. But, damn.
