Poll: Who likes Vista? Performance issues
I'm a fresh Windows Vista Ultimate user. Although I don't have a 1000$ PC,
Windows Vista is working just fine for me with all the Glass, Desktop Compositioning and Media Center. It's quite fast on bootup, I can say maybe faster than XP(maybe because of the ReadyBoost(1GB usb stick). All the drivers were installed correctly and the first time I booted up Windows Update downloaded latest versions. Here's my configuration: Athlon XP 2600+ 1.92Ghz 512MB of RAM in DualChanell FSB166 40GB HDD 5.200RPM DVD+-RW SAMSUNG DVD/CD-RW nForce 2 MCP GeForce FX5200 with 128mb RAM iPod+iTunes Microsoft Wireless USB Keyboard + Mouse Canon Bjc-1000 printer and 17 inch flat CRT from Philips on 1152x864 at 75Hz LG phone that sync with calendar and contacts(nice:-) and Office 2003 The BIOS setting are very important: High performance on CPU interface and Memory Timigs is a must!!! I can't seem to find drivers from nVidia website for my nForce and GeForce. If I manage to get some beta drivers I'm sure the performance will go up. What about you? |
