Sorry, but I have been drinking so please frogive the problems with grammer and spelling.klyth said:I've been running Vista since beta, on 4/5 of my PC's. More than half of my IT department is also running Vista. No one - and I mean NO ONE - has had any problems with it. And this is an IT department.

I worked for EA Games with the FIRST video game braught out specifically for Windows Vista and DX 10. We had NOTHIHNG BUT PROBLEMS with that operating system. Not only installing but working with the game itself. The programing was f-ed up, the integration was f-ed up, everything was f-ed up.
From all aspects with user integration, every single instance that we used Vista for, was screwed up.
Now, I'm an Anti-PC user, I admiate that. But as for a user of both Mac and PC for the past 30 years of both tech (I've used all incarnations of tihs stuff despite my age), Vista is the most horrid thing I think I've come accross in my professional use of technology.
klyth said:Sounds like all your problems were with the game, not the OS. EA makes some pretty unstable stuff.
DEFCON Creator said:My question is, is if Microsoft will allow people that were force-fed the Vista crap (like myself), to install the new OS when it comes out for free.

Also, if you used a patcher to modified your uxtheme.dll to use any 3rd party msstyle themes, you'll need to repatch the uxtheme.dll. Did Google search and found SP3 UxTheme Patcher that's for "Windows XP SP3 RTM version 5512".
