Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Vista - a new beginning
In one paragraph...i took the chance and took a day out my life to upgrade with the Vista Basic OEM software and it worked, well. My integrated sound card worked straight away and this was probably due to being connected to the internet whilst loading Vista. I did delete a few programs on my now old XP running PC, but left Broadband and every other vital program intact. I had to reinstall Office 2007 and my printer etc. My video card is older and doesn't work with my new Vista DVD media Movie Maker nor 'some of the non essential DVD features' of my seperate new Roxio burn suite software 2009, really only the DVD player side, but other than that Vista has given my 2006 PC no problems. I had to download a Roxio driver for £9.99 for my Vista ... Read More:


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - The best Windows yet
I have been using Windows Vista Home Premium for nearly two years. Initially I used it on a "Windows Vista Capable" machine, and with all the UI effects turned on it ran like a dog. I remember the same thing in 2001 when I ran Windows XP on a 233 MHz machine with 64 MB RAM (the minimum spec for XP). I have since used Vista on my other two newer machines, each of which exceed the recommended spec, and I have been rewarded with new stability and security, along with an enhanced multimedia experience. Mac OS 10.5 has nothing on Vista (I use both at work), just don't try to run it on low-end hardware and expect miracles.

Media Center is a brilliant pack-in, get a remote and plug the PC into your TV and away you go. For gamers I would ... Read More:


Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - If you can, use XP
Right, where to start!
So you're thinking about getting Vista and don't want to pay the full amount for the retail version? This OEM edition is ideal then; it is the same as the retail version without the packaging. The only restriction is that once installed, the software has to stay with that motherboard. So effectively, if your motherboard dies, so does your copy of Vista. But don't see that as a negative, Vista dying on you will mean you have to revert back to your XP copy, which is good news!
You have two ways to install Vista on a machine already running XP. You can install it on top of XP or wipe the hard drive and start a fresh. The latter is what I wanted to do, but the drivers I have for my RAID configuration are not recognised ... Read More:


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Windows Vista Home Basic OEM SP1
In addition to the horror stories I've heard and read about Vista, I'd also read that the Home Basic edition is basically like XP and therefore not worth getting. Though Vista may have been dis-functional in 2007, the 2008 edition of Home Basic with Service Pack 1 is anything but XP! Installation was painless and despite my motherboard manufacturer not offering Vista compatible drivers, Windows Update made easy work of finding current VGA, Network & Audio drivers to run my Motherboard under XP. I've had one program that will not function correctly but it's a specialist piece of Broadcast Software for which a Vista version is available so all in all, no major problems, catastrophe's etc etc. I think the Vista horror stories mainly relate to early ...
