We (and when i say "we" i mean the average stupid end user) all need to go back to Windows v1.0, where a user could only run 1 app at a time. Think of how much easier that would make support calls, and how much more time you'll have for CS, which will be the only thing running on the company server now that the plebs have Windows V1.0......
I know where youre coming from, the competition has made things cheaper.
But, and i hate to point htis out and i swear im no Intel zealot, i have at home 2 Intel based systems with actual Intel motherboards in them. Im one of those boring people who doesnt buy ASUS or Gigabyte motherboards with all manner of options to overclock everything to the nth degree. Im not a gaming idiot, who by the way are the cause of endless upgrades, architecture changes and inflated component prices.
And why do i not buy Giga/ASUS etc motherboards and use the stock Intel ones (not cheap btw).....stability my friend, i have yet to in the 2-4 years ive been running these 2 machines things ever had a crash or lockup or anything other than peaceful PC use.
Troll? Me? If having a contrary (or non popular) opinion makes one a troll, then i guess i am??
How quickly some people like to label others.
Im merely stating the facts, if you remember AMD did start out as a boutique chip maker.
By definition any small vendor going up against the pre-eminent maker of chips (Intel) is going to get that label.
AMD are to blame for their own shortcomings, they got into a clock speed war with Intel and stability has always suffered. You either address the stability issues and take the high ground, or you continue to engage in a speed war and damn your customers. In the end its all been for nothing as they are behind Intel in almost every way. Absorbing ATI *may* pay off, but only if they get the integration right. Personally i dont see point of an all in one solution, im a sane person and will always want my graphics card seperate from embedding on the MB. They can trot out as many 4 or 8 card crossfire setups they want too, ill never trust the underlying architecture against proven Intel architecture.
And for the record, im no Intel zealot, Id much rather be running a RISC system personally.........way more efficient at lower clock speeds.
And people wonder why AMD has issues with software....always has, always will
How about you people stop buying boutique processors and instead join the real world:)
Heres yet more proof that the collective IQ in the world is sinking.
What do you expect if you try and install SP3 over a machine thats been running SP2 for god knows how long and picking up gunk from the internet etc, slowly corrupting drivers etc.
Any sane person, and im one of them, would slipstream SP3 into the original release and install that fresh....
So after doing this i have:
No issues.
Speedier startup and the long delay in shutting down is gone.
All my drivers work and i have some hardware in this thing, no issues.
Less notices in event viewer than i actually had using SP2 in the last few years.
The one thing i had to do was download IE7 off the net, i tried using the one from AutoPatcher (how i loved thee), but it wouldnt install. Other than this its been brilliant.
So the person who started this topic and the pages around the net are proof that a certain segment of people will always try and do things the hard. I never thought id say this, but stop blaming Microsoft, they did their job and SP3 is fine. Again some people just like the sound of their own voice in internet forums, and for once its not me, its the incompetent whingers that post this crap about SP3, take some ownership you mental midgets....i suspect most of the whingers are also the ones without valid product keys too................
If the law continues to mollycoddle little wankers like this then society will continue to suffer as those who can send a message drag their feet for fear of being seen as heavy handed.
No problems with being heavy handed, me, if i found the kid, i would beat ten shades of shit out of him, blind or not. The law doesnt know if youre blind or not....so anyone using his blindness to dull the impact of what he has done should stop being a bleeding heart and take a reality pill....
How about you get WinFS and all the other components promised, but never shipped, and dropped....
Microsoft, what sort of arseclown do you want to be today?
That site has been around for weeks...........
Why dont they juts have the following on the page:
Is it true that Microsoft Vista sucks ass
(oh and disable the No button so even Microsoft cant generate phantom positive responses)
Meanwhile for the T-Shirt, i submit:
Microsoft Vista
Im not the only thing thats bloated.....
48% Are basically ignorant fundamentalist christian wankers who deserve all the hatred us non-ignorant right minded people have for you, and the problems your insane belief systems cause in the rest of the world.
The world would be a better place isf the 48% were removed from existence. Ill then happily buy the remaining (semi)sane 52% a beer.
Greetings from Australia, an ally that now grows to hate you ever more as you elect wankers into your government. Of course, you did let the current one steal the job, and the reason he got away with it was because of these knuckledragging creationists and all their money. Of course the same type of fundamentalist christian arseholes got a foot in the door of our government as well.
I reckon we get them all in a tower, ive got a pilots license, and God knos (he's my God)they should be the ones who cop the end result of their hatred from the Eastern faiths, not us normal people, or as turn out to be when they go hate mongering, their "buffer".
Death to 48% of America
p.s. im a reformed catholic, i woke up to the fact its all about money, power and abusing small children.

I have more money than sense and need to spend it on something that makes me seem cool.
If i dont waste it on one of these TV's what am i supposed to waste it on?
Oh wait, ill find a kickstarter project where i can lose the money
Crisis averted....

I certainly wouldnt donate to a project where there was exactly 1 of the product, that would just be ins@ne

Technically two copies of Vista in a house constitutes a virus infection.
