Is backwards compatibility really that difficult to program into a system? They designed a system which allows you to plug a piece of hardware into a pc and the OS will automatically read it and install it. You don't need to go through all the configuration BS anymore. But a preprogrammed DOS or pre-xp emulator thingy is just too damn hard I guess. BTW I have the 32-bit version of vista, not the 64. Quote:

2. Wtf are you running from 1999 and before? Vista isn't the anti-christ everyone thinks it is, and I hate to admit it, but I like it better than XP now. Then again, I've taken the time to learn the OS a bit. |

| Tadao | I'm for the advancement of technology. I like 64 bit, too bad my 64 bit browser won't play 32 bit flash vids, but why the hell would I want to watch a 32 bit flash vid? It's time to step up to 64 bit. | |

ok. I'm an experienced windows "power-user". Here's my legitimate bashes 1. it asks you permission for EVERYTHING. And turning it all off takes a lot of time. 2. This started with XP, but it is incompatible with a lot of older programs. almost anything 99ish and earlier is useless. |

| Tadao | There is one thing I don't like about vista. But maybe there is a setting. When I defrag, I can't find anything that tells me what percent it's at. No graph, no numbers. Nothing really. | |

| DevilWearsPrada | Vista is overbashed IMO. Most the time the general public blames it for problems instead of their own incompetence | |

| 10,000 Volt Ghost | I updated my Antivirus and it seems that what was causing the ruckus. Now my Mojave is good again. | |

| Tadao | I've never had a problem with it. | |

Is Vista really that terrible? I'm thinking of getting a laptop soon, and I was looking forward to Vista.

| RPGmaker | idk ive never had a problem getting on GOW, WoW, FFXI, Etc. The only problem ive had with my vista was when i was holdng a video conf. it left an open IE in task when nothing was open and it would error out my new IE when i opened a new one. Fixed that easily tho with an update. | |

| VaporTrailx1 | I got it all to work finally! all I had to do was restore my computer to original factory settings from my backup drive and reinstall everything I ever put on the pc! | |

| 10,000 Volt Ghost | Hahaha, I don't even think you need to have an internet connection for AIM to get through. | |
| Sep 11th, 2008 07:31 PM | ||
| VaporTrailx1 |
Not even java can connect to update. AIM has no problem getting through though. Neither does windows update or quicktime. |

| 10,000 Volt Ghost | I've been having the same problem lately. I had to allow programs, then turn off the firewall, then turn off the anti-virus firewall. It's really annoying. | |

| VaporTrailx1 | i dunno. I'm trying to get ahold of EA but their service sucks. they got no phone number and emailing them takes forever | |
| Sep 10th, 2008 08:07 PM | ||
| pac-man | You should probably talk to the folks at Microsoft. Be rude and use naughty language. | |
| Sep 10th, 2008 04:31 PM | ||
| VaporTrailx1 | yep. I dunno what's up with it | |
| Sep 10th, 2008 02:05 AM | ||
| pac-man | Are you using the Administrator profile? | |
| Sep 10th, 2008 12:36 AM | ||
| VaporTrailx1 | actually i'm pretty sure Gamespy is the problem when it comes to that one. They never send me my damn confirmation email so i have an unconfirmed account. It's not coming up in my spam filter either. | |

| VaporTrailx1 | I just find it retarded that EA decided to make Battlefield 2142 unplayable without connecting to it's server. Atleast I got Ground Control 2 and world in Conflict to keep me busy. Hopefully I can figure out how to get Gamespy working by the time the Battlefield 2 Collection comes. | |

| MetalMilitia | You're probably doing it wrong. | |
| Sep 9th, 2008 10:36 PM | ||
| VaporTrailx1 | it still does it even with the firewall off | |

| DevilWearsPrada |
you probably have to set 'allow connections from' everytime you connect through a game Well, once for each program, at least |
