Vista Service Pack 2

Yeah, my new laptop came with vista the tool bar ate up so much ram, regardless of the fact that I already had 4 gb it still lagged like a POS.

 

service pack 2,to install or not to install,now that is the question....tempted but scared,haha

 

Will my laptop manually download SP2 or do I have to do it myself?

 

it's an iso image, it's like 1.3 gb or something. i mounted it onto a virtual drive and then installed.

 

Desktop - 2.8Ghz Duo Core CPU, 4gb RAM, 256MB video card running Vista Ultimate
Laptop - 2.0Ghz Centrion Duo CPU, 2gb RAM, built in video card running XP Professional

I turned off all the junk on Vista Ultimate - side bar, continuous indexing crap and all the security bs where it asks for your permission to do everything every time.

Boot up both at the same time and I can start working on the laptop while the damn desktop still clanking away trying to load the damn OS. that is why Vista is a piece of crap. have uninstalled it since then and installed with XP professional.

 

best download it from MS site then install it.. doing the update will takes ages

 

Rofl, wouldn't disagree
should just skip vista n go straight for win 7

 

its a little much calling it crap cus Xp loads faster, of course XP loads faster, its a knows fact that XP is faster than vista.

 

And here I thought you were going to provide an intelligent response. I had my hopes up.

 

Hey a Nissan skyline is slower than a Ferrari, therefore the skyline is crap! :Talktohand:

 

Oh nose! The Skyline is crap?! *Panics*

 

then too bad for you cuz windows 7 and the rest of the future releases will be based on the vista core
