Drift:
Only problem Ive had with Vista is it wont run my old Auto data so thats run on the lads laptop  :wink:

go to the manufacturer's websites for each item ie: camera, external drives etc and they should have a downloadable patch for vista software. It's just a matter of time, untill each company produces one.

If you change your computer from Vista to XP, then any drives and or hardware which has a microsoft certification, should not require any new drivers, but this is not a garantee.

Personally I'd just wait till the companies of the products that do not work, produce the required drivers as it's free, and a lot quicker, than reinstalling everything and finding old serial codes.

either way good luck with that.

BigSi:
Windows Vista is the best thing to happen to computers. It is the most stable of all platforms, and there are absolutely no driver/patch issues, as it works first time with everything……………………..God!!! Did I say that out loud!!!!!!!!!!

again, it works with every thing that has a microsoft certificate. if it does not have a microsoft certificate, drivers should come on a CD for XP / vista or would be available from the non-microsoft client web site, or from third parties, who cannot be bothered to wait for someone else to do it. this third party ones are usually unreliable, but get better as time progresses, and re-releases are issued by people who patch the patches in the origional patch. you follow?

in other words vista is good. it just needs time for service pack 2 to arrive and non microsoft companies to start writting for the new scripts vista uses.

easy huh?

Smego:
I like Vista, and yes some of our laptops are no longer Vista supported (I work for Toshiba) but all can be made to work if you have a non oem copy of XP.
Get a copy of VM ware and run a VM xp inside Vista.
