Michael said:Not every program plays nice with Vista. For an example Neverwinter
Nights will lock up or crash at random under Vista which it never did
under XP. Since my computer is a clean install of Vista Home Premium
running on a P5Q Turbo motherboard and a E8400 CPU with 4 GB of memory
this is Not a hardware issue. If you look at the forums you will see
the same problem for everyone. Even running the program in XP
compatibility mode will not fix the program. To get Dungeon Siege
Legends of Arrana to run I had to get a hacked version as the copy
protection will Not work with Vista under any settings.

By definition, moving from Vista to XP is a downgrade, not an upgrade.
Michael Dobony said:Lets see, XP is stable, Vista does random resets and lockups. XP runs just
about anything written in the last 7 years. Vista can't even run its own
bundled programs. XP is 2x faster than Vista. Since upgrading to XP last
Christmas XP locked up only about 5 or 6 times. From August to Christmas
prior to upgrading to XP, Vista locked up that many times a week. Not very
nice when trying to take notes at school.

not to even try doing anything to them because Windows 7 requires a
minimum of 1 GB for 32 bit but you will need at least 4GB to do any
meaningful work. I recommend 8GB to be really productive.

systems? Have you thought of coming to my class where I can educate you
on the way you should install your OS?

I have an HP Compaq Presario C 500 laptop computer that came with
Windows Vista Home Basic installed. This has been upgraded to SP2. It
has a Intel Celeron M CPU 430 @ 1.73 GHz
I am contemplating buying a 3-pack of Windows 7 to install on my
desktop, my wife's desktop and my laptop computers. I'm not sure this
laptop will handle Windows 7, though.
It has 512 MB of RAM and 68.9 GB of hard disk space with 47.4 GB free,
presently. This is set up as a 32 bit O.S. I will probably do a clean
install and delete all files from this hard drive, after backing the
important stuff up onto a flash drive or CD.
Methinks you have more issues than the operating system. I haven't had XP
lock up that many times since I first installed it in 2001. And while I'm no
fan of Vista, I haven't had much trouble with it, just don't like the
slowness and the heavy feel of it. I just upgraded to 7 on my Vista
notebook. It's much faster and more responsive than Vista, but there are a
few things about it I'm not crazy about either.
