To make it run at startup requires a workaround using task manager. What a joke. And they have the audacity to call it security. I have not found Vista to be any more stable or secure than any of my 200 XP machines. The 50 some old P2s and P3s that W98/ME/NT/W2K were replaced with Linux are more stable than any Vista machine I have seen. The graphics aren't as pretty, but they work fine for their purpose. So just who is the joke on? |

You should have startes that last sentence with, 'In my experience...', because I, and many others had the exact opposite experience with XP. My Win98 box was upgraded to XP, about a week after it went gold in 2001. It had been thru a myriad of hardware upgrades, and ran the gold version until Aug 2006 (no SP1) when I sufferred a massive hardware event that took out the power supply and two physical HD's. Prior to that, XP ran totally smooth and I can't even remember any lockups. Since then the only issue I've had was the loss of network connections during large netwrok file transfers. This was traced back to a bad stick of RAM that was added. And this didn't even cause a BSOD, just loss of connectivity. Since the main reason given for Vista problems is third-party driver/software related, who's to say that the reason for your XP problems were not third-party driver/software related also and had nothing to do with XP itself ? I have to give you the time tested, tried and true Vista pushers reasoning for XP, it works *perfectly* on my system, so it must be something you are doing or incompatible 3rd party drivers/software. |

| Re: I HATE VISTA Everyone seems to lose sight of the fact that the only reason any OS exists is to allow the user to run software on his system. This goes for DOS, Linux, 95, 98, XP, or Vista. If the OS is so inflexible as to preclude running any "3RD Party" software, then what earthly good is it? Whether you use your system for work, gaming, multi-media, or whatever else, I doubt any version of Windows will do any of the things you want to your satisfaction. So the user is stuck with using one of the 3RD Party packages that all of the Vista apologists seem to look down their noses at. I'll ask again. If Vista can't allow me to use my system for what I need it for, and XP will, what earthly good is Vista.
