Hahaha, to that, I have to agree, I get the feeling the computer is in control, not me, something which is totally different to my favourite OS, that being win 98 se and do wish that kind of simplicity was back. Maybe that could be why I struggle with Vista, I am insulting it with trying to use it like my old friend win 98

The best thing I have found about Vista, is it is very secure, nothing seems to get through the security, except updates from M$, which usually just mess the system up, the latest being I have lost is sound which sort of ruins my Youtube explorations. A fault that has got HP support scratching their head, a common fault it seems, due to M$ not having the right drivers yet.

I have, I have been told, an unusual machine in that it was designed for XP, but was upgraded to accept Vista and so has Vista loaded, some of the Vista updates fail due to the XP part of the system, just typical I thought, just my luck.

I don't care about all the techie bits, all I wanted was a computer that does what is expected of it and no more.
