    Default Any tips for Vista Users?

    Does anyone know any tips that could maybe help Vista run faster? Please don't post anything harmful that would mess up a computer. Sorry if there's a thread about this already. The only thing I found out was to turn off UAC off. I can't revert back to XP, so don't bother saying that.

    If you have the far fancier theme enabled that has transparencies, turn that off. Short of that, there isn't too much you can do without doing some heavy modding of the system, something which no one should do without first knowing exactly what they doing.

    Downgrade.

    Best choice you'll ever make, or your balls back guaranteed.

    Could you tell me how? I'm a Vista newbie.

    Whats your PC specs? If your PC is good enough Vista will run as a charm.

    Is such a thing possible? I mean, once you get past compatibility issues, awful drivers, the occasional system crash, DRM, various infringements upon your personal freedoms, and a few [thousand] other things, sure, it ain't so bad!

    I hate Vista. It makes me want to scrape out my eyes with a sharp object some times.

    DRM? Nothing to do with Vista. You hate Vista because you want to, not because it's bad. Obviously you have had a bad experience. Mostly because of bad hardware or your own fault. Mark my words.

    Vista for the future. XP=Downgrade.

    My tip!

    Throw gasoline on it!
    burn it!
    pee on it!
    shit on it!
    kick it!
    smash it to pieces!
    and then throw it outa the window and spit on it!


    The only usefull thing on vista is their skins >.>
