Vista vs XP

**Requiem** · 12-27-2008, 03:46 PM

Honestly, I take back all the bad things I've ever said about Vista. Granted, I still hear the low-end versions suck ass. But I've been running Vista Ultimate x64 and I am loving it. With 6GB of RAM and a dual core, it runs great.

Of course, it took a little bit of tweaking, such as getting rid of that stupid fucking abomination known as User Account Control. The only hitch I had on installing, was when I installed. I had XP installed on my other hard drive, and was installing on my new one. But when I installed, it detected some Windows files on the other HD that both versions use apparently. Didn't know that until after I'd transferred stuff to the new HD, and then formatted my old one. Suddenly, it wouldn't boot up. Had to go through some processes and took a few hours to transfer things back and forth multiple times, but I finally reinstalled it on the new HD and got everything going.
