64-bit vista home premium

If your computer cant run bit Vista i would advise staying with Xp Pro till it can. Pros: Fast Good Looking Finally stable OS. Personally i prefer Vista over XP for everything including gaming since it will support direct x Overall Review: loaded in about 10 min. Pros: This is a nice interface, and a powerful OS - it sure is pretty!

Intuitive layout, love the sidebar gagdets, maintains functionality with WinXP x86 bit software almost completely. It's not like they abandoned backwards compatibility as many reviewers would have you believe. Just double check your hardware that there is a bit driver often, there is or at least a work around usually available if you look hard enough. I'm using my standard-projection TV in the living room hooked up to component video outs of my video card as my Windows Media Center, and eliminated my DVD player from my house, and can now listen to or view every multimedia file on my computer from my living room couch.

Windows Media Center is my favorite new app. Also, the backup wizard is included, and video backgrounds can be used with a workaround. Cheapos, don't fear - 2GB will still work. Also, the need for a bit processor for this x64 version may put a few people out, but the actual and potential performance enhancements that come from x64 are well worth the cash.

Doesn't come with MS Office, heheh :. Overall Review: All the complaints in these reviews are tiring. If you build a nice system doesn't have to be really high end and are a fan of XP, then this is your next logical step. SP1 has worked fine for me, including hardware. Anyone who can't do a quick Google search for how to turn off User Access Control prompts doesn't deserve to be able to write a review.

Pros: Not a single one so far. I installed vista, installed all my favorite games and programs, and I have not had a single hick-up with anything yet. I got all worried with everyone saying Vista was bad, then jumping to 64 was just a death wish Not true.

Everything runs smooth and flawless, excellent buy! Not completely a bad thing if you know that and build your system for it. With everything booted up, just sitting in Vista with no other porgrams running its using almost 1g of ram. Plan on having at least 4g of ram for Vista.

Pros: Great product, I love the Bit because it allows me to utilize all 4 gigs of memory that I bought. Interface is great and there are plenty of customizable features to make the OS fit your needs. You need a fast system with a lot of memory and a processor that is bit compatible. While the bit version allows you to utilize more memory, it also requires more memory to run smoothly.

Second, make sure to read up on how you can trim some of the fat off of the OS by uninstalling features that you will not use. Pros: I dont know where all this negativity came from with Vista, maybe it was just early on. I installed it and within an hour i was online and surfing and having zero problems. All drivers installed no problem.

My old games like Warcraft 3, 2, Civ2, Starcraft etc all worked flawlessly. Goes without saying so did my newer ones.

Since mostly what i do is surf and game, and so far it has not had a problem doing either one, 5 stars for Vista with SP1. This thread is locked. You can follow the question or vote as helpful, but you cannot reply to this thread. I have the same question Report abuse. Details required :.
