How many people on here are using Vista?

Paul Lamar


P,

      Vista and Windows Mail, and xp and Outlook Express...

Jack Beale

Had any trouble with either one?

Paul Lamar

-- P,

     Define trouble...

     But, no, not really.  Both xp and Vista work pretty well --
I believe, though, that Vista requires a not inconsequential
increase in hardware power to run it effectively.
     a.. I have xp running on a DELL laptop with an Intel
P-IV chip with 348 MB RAM, and
     b.. I have Vista running on a DELL desktop with an Intel
920i processor with 6 GB RAM
     I've had more headaches with the mail programs and the
hardware (especially the hardware) than the O/S, per se...
The disk drives have given me problems more than anything...

Best...

-- However you do have to be careful because there are
still some programs that do not run on vista even
emulation XP.
I have a call center with 50 PC's, we tried Vista
but could not run the programs we needed so went
back to XP.  Currently running Vista on 3 laptops.
Like the other guys said unless you have a powerful
PC you should "dumb" it down a little.
