I have an XP and a VISTA.
I had no problem with VISTA until recently.
I was on “automatic update”, and it crashed last week, after the Jan. 14th update.

I had it fixed and off and running I am again.
But, seems as if there are a lot of updates. I spend a lot of time researching those things and actually don’t have the time for that.
I sure do like XP though.

And, I was a lot happier without a computer. Hummmmmm, I think....and better off financially.
Welllllll, maybe not!!!
At least the stress wasn’t as bad. ;-)

I have both XP/SP2 on my desktop, and Vista on my laptop. Only one of the XP updates blew me away early last year, and that was because of ZASS; all of the others were seamless. The three updates for Vista have blown out every time, requiring me to go in and reset all my pointers and links to my home network. Vista plain sucks!

The stress isn't too bad inside my little padded room!       ;^)

I’m running on XP, and dread the day that I have to replace it. I do realize that many people have vastly different needs than me,but this does everything I need, right now.
Good infomation though.

I run on XP at home, and about three weeks ago, MS did a critical update, and since then my machine has been crashing every other day, with strange things going on with my AVG anti-virus program and video drivers. Before THAT update, everything was fine, afterward, my mahcine went o crap.

I hate MS.
