No wonder Vista quit paying me. |

Gives you the "sorta" vista aero gui look, blacks out your taskbar too and gives you a couple gadgets, and gives you the cool "start button orb" too you should check it out if youre cheap like me and generally do not want to test Vista at such an early stage. I downloaded a Flip3d Program so now when I alt-tab, it does the tiling thing...SOO COOL!!11!1! Im gonna rock with this until service pack I for vista comes out lol!
Once upon a time....

The largest call volume we have is regarding three key issues. 1) OneCare has a compatability issue one SOME machines due to a coding error onecares security policy will block all network connections until disabled or installed. 2) Driver issues a lot of companies dont have them out, or they arent easy to find, or they are not coded properly and thus dont work. 3) Upgrade from previous OS due to any number of 3rd party issues including adware/spyware infection this is where we see the most 'random' problems errors that are occuring because vista cant configure itself properly after converting Xp. |
