Vista also deletes XPs NTLDR boot loader, so it will always boot into Vista, you can get round it tho with a program off the net that adds it back

Looks like the answer to dual boot...

Well it's good to know that Vista is at least liveable... I will wait till all the software catches up wit the OS... I like media but I'm not a freak and def not a gamer... all the progs i use are not Vista compatible and I need to wait till they somewhat are...

I hear ya man...I refrained from the idea of Vista cause I thought I wouldn't be able to use a lot of my everyday things...but even things that don't seem to be meant for vista have been working for me...just running a lot of my older programs off of my slave disk...on old xp install. I lucked out

it took me a long time to get to where I have no probs and i enjoy my computer and all the things it does... If I got Vista for free and it was a stipulation I would have to get rid of XP,,, I would turn it down...

My server package is running great right now but...where I got the sever package the forum is loaded with post like " HELP! I got Vista and My server don't work...

1. sometimes windows won't open like they should... like with tabs on IE7, you open a new tab but it won't load the page, won't do nothing, it just opens up a completely blank page (no bar at the bottom or info or anything) i'll take a screen shot next time to show you what i mean) when that happens, you also can't right click anything (menu won't come up) can't restart your computer through the task bar (task bar will be completely blank) you have to crtl alt and del and it takes you to a menu (doesn't just bring up task manager) and you have ot restart from that screen to get rid of it.

new, easier fix... just restart explorer.exe.

ME was the start of XP so lets hope Vista is the predecessor of something good...

Maybe vista will lead to Windows Veranda or something...I'd like to see where the naming goes.
