Vista was horrible. yep, ive got two keys, and a dvd, and i reverted back to xp/pc-bsd... i hated vista, it is quite buggy, i just want teh dvds max Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SenVa Posted August 19, 2006 Share Posted August 19, 2006 Really Vista was worse than XP? I know vista is still a Beta, but it has been in production for so long... What kind of buggyness is there in vista? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bwhsh8r Posted August 19, 2006 Author Share Posted August 19, 2006 Why get a DVD? The burned one is the same exact thing. collection, ebay (theyre going for 40+ usd) and i have a burnt copy too... but the mailed ones are cooler too... senva, the bugginess is getting better, but it still runs quite slowly, is a resource hog and needs alot more work to be ready... i hear the build after that is better tho.... but still, as i sayed b4, if u dont like it collect the dvds or ebay them... and xps bugs have been for the most part worked out, because microsoft has had time to patch it and fix it.... sorry if thats not what you expected, and microsofts betas are known to be of a buggy nature.... max Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SenVa Posted August 19, 2006 Share Posted August 19, 2006 oh ok... I guess I should have expected it to be unstable... not only is it a beta but it is from microsoft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lkr Posted August 19, 2006 Share Posted August 19, 2006 a lot of programs don't work in Vista. and when a stable release of an MS product is buggy, the beta is bound to be torture Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bwhsh8r Posted August 19, 2006 Author Share Posted August 19, 2006 a lot of programs don't work in Vista. and when a stable release of an MS product is buggy, the beta is bound to be torture exzactly, my dad thinks im stupid for even ordering the disks, but idc cause he also thinks linux sucks... but the betas are really bad... i think after sp1 the oss are fine, but intil then not so much (cept for the server oss, those are better, i loved the server 2003 alot more than xp... it runs alot better ) max Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sam_the_killer Posted August 19, 2006 Share Posted August 19, 2006 BETA's are always gonna stay buggy coz Microsoft does not wanna give away Betas as refined as the Original coz then who's gonna buy or download the Final Release then ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Something can be done to prolong it I'm waiting for mine now. yep, but it runs slower i think if you disable those services........ and idk if it will prolong it, it just wont make u activate..... oh, and sam_the_killer... unlike previous betas, this one expires on a certain date....... max Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bwhsh8r Posted August 19, 2006 Author Share Posted August 19, 2006 I'm about to give my DVD for it to my bro to let him try it I think... The keys are good for up to 10 computers... so your all good there... but you might want to dualboot instead of wiping the whole hdd.... just a hint max Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
