Sorry if this is not quite the informative post to provide a solution or problem solvers for people with this particular operating system that are having problems, but after being skeptical about trying out a new operating system, I'm here to share a few of the many praises I have for buying this operating system.
I've been using it for 2 months now, and I can't believe how well it adapted to my casual computer usage, I'm not sure of the specifics of the super-fetch feature or whatever it's called, but I've had my system updated with the hundreds of updates that Microsoft releases, and it seems with the passing time, my operating system seems snappier, knows what I normally launch and saves on load times. Gaming is fantastic, driver support is fantastic, software support is fair, considering Winamp doesn't work like it used to with Windows XP, so I'm stuck with Windows Media Player and I can't used my paid version of DFX for Windows Media Player because it was purchased primarily for Winamp
All the software I had when I had Windows XP, works perfectly with Vista64. At first I was concerned with my decision basically because it seemed like Vista was too cute and was going to render my control to minimal, but it seems like after adjusting to the operating system, I had just as much control over it as I did with Windows XP. The visuals are different but enjoyable, my system is powerful enough to run Aero and the features run smoothly and has never slowed my machine down or forced me to turn some of the features off to enjoy it.
I did have a problem with my game server program of choice: All Seeing Eye, it was incompatible for Vista64, so I used the compatibility option and programmed it to emulate Windows XP SP2 and it works beautifully now.
I'm happy with Windows Vista64, and I'm glad it was released by Microsoft, the standards and minimium requirements alone will set computing needs higher, demanding higher performance for less or equal money from mass producing companies like Dell, HP/Compaq. This is good for consumers!
Sorry for the praise, just got alittle tired of hearing all the bad, but hardly any good
Chime in! And thanks for reading my post and taking the time.
