Turning off Vista Kill Switch is a good start, but not enough.
 
It looks like many people who did not have problems with Vista are
having problems due to a problem with Vista trying to reverify the OS.

Just because you are not having problems now, doesn't mean you are home
free. Hopefully the service pack will solve the problem

What is your point Reg other than to try to stir up an argument?



That's Reggie's only reason for being here.

It really is very easy.
Everyone in here uses a computer. Vista has a long history of being a
royal pain in the neck to both professional IT managers and home users
If you haven't purchased Vista already, you probably don't want to do it.

I am not stirring up and argument. It is a link to an article that is
pertinent to most of us, even those who have Vista and are happy with Vista.

Why would anyone get there panties into a wad because of the OS they use?

Ditto.



How can an article about the problems of Vista cause an argument? If
you have it and are happy with it, that is great. If you don't have it,
this would probably make you think twice before buying it, again, no big
deal. Why would you allow an article about Vista be a reason to get
into an argument?

You are doing just as I predicted. Have a nice day.




Reggie is into his "who, me?" mode.

Thanks, you too. It is a beautiful winter day here.

How's your son, have you heard from him since he went to advanced
training?
