There's a cult made just for us. It'll help with those bugs, point out which add ons are must haves and the other important things that'll keep your computer running smooth. Either post here or follow the link:

I haven't had a problem yet either. It runs real fast with 2 gigs of ram, and it never maxes out the 2 gigs either. I loined, because I am looking for some good add ons.

ram is a good add on.

So starting a thread is only the first half. You actually have to put content in it.

Yeah, I understand.. It's kind of like walking into an ice cream shop and having no ice cream.
But you just wait.. The ice cream machines are coming! Haha..

So much hate the problem with vista is with the users if u can run a computer above the solitaire level stick to XP, for people who can run a command line Vista is the way to go this OS has so much to offer.

O idk im really not a fan of windows, its just that its the only system games are on, and alot of other software i need to use..

if your looking for an OS that has a lot to offer, look at linux.

Yup. Vista is 1000x better than XP. Most of the bad things you've heard of were right after launch and caused by hardware makers not making Vista drivers- Something Microsoft has nothing to do with.
