Gee suprise suprise Microsoft stuffs it up AGAIN , you would have thought
that the second beta would be pretty reliable but oh no... this is microsoft

I will not be buying vista when it comes out and the ONLY reason I still use
windows now is due to gaming compatability.
I will however be buying a second computer and it will be an Apple !

business with idiots like you running the show...

What part of "Beta" was unclear to you?

Did you not read this on the download site?

Note: This is beta code and should not be used in a production environment
or on a main machine in the home. Beta 2 is intended for developers, IT
professionals and technology experts to continue or begin their testing of
Windows Vista. Before you decide to use Beta 2, you should feel comfortable
with installing operating systems, updating drivers, and general PC
troubleshooting. Some risks of using beta operating systems include hardware
and software incompatibility and system instability. If you have concerns
about installing this beta software on your computer, we encourage you to
obtain the final release version of Windows Vista when it is available in
2007.

Did you read the disclaimer before installing this BETA software? Do you
understand the concept of Beta software? The whole idea of beta software is
to find bugs before the software is released for sale. If you found some
bugs you should report them. There is a tool on the desktop for this
purpose. If all the Beta users do this there will be less bugs in the final
product. Maybe you won't have to buy that Apple if you report the bugs,
although I must admit the new Macs are pretty nice. Once the software
catches up to the switch to Intel I might buy one myself.
 
I suspect an uproar from all the media when vista gets released..
they are keeping it somewhat quiet now (well not that quiet) but
once they release it, it will be shredded to pieces by the people who know
what real computing is.
 
Oh I forgot to say that they are not shredding it to pieces NOW is because
the excuse is
from everyone "its still beta, its still beta" as if there will be a miracle
in the RTM...

They dont have much interest in changing it a lot, they are focusing on bugs
now...
so you can understand what will be introduced the public...

oh.. not everyone can understand... I mean some can understand...
well.....kinda....

Can you tell me who these "people who know what real computing is" are? I
have a pretty good knowledge and experience of computers going back to the
PDP-11, CP/M, Pet etc. Vista has it's problems but overall looks pretty good
for a Beta product. It's more stable than the Windows 95 pre RC1 (aka
Chicago) builds were.
 
I will restrain myself from answering.

Its hard but... I can do it!

You will understand what I am talking about when its released.

What gives you the right to speak for "everyone"?

I have enough functioning brain cells to be able to install Vista.

I have enough functioning brain cells to dual-boot, so a bad load wont cost
anything.

I have enough functioning brain cells to determine if my hardware can
support Vista.

I, for one, am glad that you'll not be buying Vista. You are just one less
rank amateur who won't need any hand holding.

Why don't you go find some cheese to go with your whine?

You're pretty vague but I expect there will be many people saying Vista is
crap when it is released. That has been the case for all major releases of
software from all developers that I can think of. Whether the naysayer's are
right or merely luddites only time will tell.

am i supposed to format windows dry when it won't load up

i can get into mac os but not windows -- can you please assist me or direct

Although I comply to this requirement, I must give up too...

I used a brand new machine, a Compaq Pentium D 930 and installed the 64-bits
Vista version on the empty second partition.

First install: after the second reboot I ended up with a black screen. Safe
Mode did not work either. System Restore on the DVD did not show any restore
points. No options left but

Second install: same problem

Thrid install: This time I made a Restore Point directly after the install
and repeated this after each, even minor, change in my configuration, so I
could go back to previous Restore points. I had to go back to previous
restore points every 2 reboots. And even when I joined the machine to a
domain containing Windows 2000 and Windows 2003 server I lost this domain
membership with every restore of the system. This third install failed after
I had used bcdedit to remove the old install directories and it appeared that
all my restore points for my working install were removed. Now I am staring
at a black screen again..

No, I will not install it a fourth time. It takes too much of my time. I'll
wait for the RC...
