Just saw the Daytime segment

When I heard about Les's video card I just shook my head. Bill Gates will not be getting any thing from me on Vista. I will get along just fine with XP 98 and Xandros

[Deb]

Good choice :)

[justabitcrazee]

I think they are pressuring people too much to buy into it. They have the Global previews, of the shows on next now "Powered By Vista". I don't want to see advertisements about my operating system on my TV thank you. Not to mention you cant buy a computer today without Vista on it. Microsoft want everyone to switch, so they don't have to support XP any longer than they have to.

Oh, you know this is not true.

Visit your local Apple store for another choice.

[Cat person]

New pcs from the big manufacturers always have the latest OS installed, nothing new there. :)

You didnt just say that. :huu:

[Mouse]

Strange, I thought I did.

Maybe I'm mistaken??




:yyk:

[Les Shaw]

We still give you the choice of OS , my Logitech Camera and my ATI aiw x1900 card. It makes me cry

[Mindcore]

Am I missing something? What happened with Les' video card?

[Thaiwoo]

No worky with Vista!

[justabitcrazee]

my AIW 9600 doesnt work with Vista either

[Dr.Dan]

When $400 video cards aren't 'good enough' to run with Vista... that's the time to run away!! :tcu:

Yet another reason to get a custom built PC at a local store... and run whatever OS on it you want :)

les hows the dual boot working for ya..i was thinking doing the same but unsure what size partions to go with..i just have the home premium and waiting for my 64bit dvd to come in the mail..i was thinking 200gb for xp and 300gb for vista or vise versa..4gbs of ram that must be nice..lol

Have you updated the drivers?

[justabitcrazee]

It works but the TV tuner is picky. The TV hardly works in XP Media center, it takes a bit of screwing around to make it show up, and theres no fix out for Vista yet. Besides when I did run it on my desktop, I only got like a 2.6 compatibility rating (with my Sempron 3400 and my 512 of ram).

I read somewhere that AMD is dropping support for All in wonder cards. Is this really Microsoft's fault or AMD?

[Dr.Dan]

It's a conspiracy... they're all in bed together :akq:

[Les Shaw]

The Dual boot works well but I installed each on it's own 320 gig , and a raptor 150 for files and another 320 for my videos and such.
Runs well but I miss my Tuner.

[awesomejs]

i thought u couldn't dual boot on 2 different drives

[Thaiwoo]

Yes you can, I ran two XP home editions (one English & one German) off two different HD's.

[awesomejs]

it gives u the boot menu?

[Thaiwoo]

Yep

[glitch]

Possibly.

I knew AMD would screw up ATI.

how does the dual boot work for 2 hard drives?does it matter what operating systems are begin ussed and which needs to be installed first

Everything is done the same as installing on a single drive... you just pick the first partition on the second drive to install it on.

As always, oldest OS first
