Reply to After installing Windows updates March 13th in Windows XP WinCustomize Forums

That is why I will not use the updates. Just a tad bit paranoid hmmmm? LoL..C'mon, where your sense of adventure?... Dont you like puzzles? Honestly I have only ever had a few minor issues with the updates... I will not allow them to be automatic, but I will install them for the simple fact that their purpose is to reinforce a product that clearly needs it.... I NEVER install any of the Hardware/Drivers from Windows update, now that wou

Just dealt with a similar issue, although it wasn't due to an update..... Error code 41.. The drive was there, but there was a problem loading the drivers..couldnt even use the drive before windows loaded, slightly annoying to say the least.. Ended up deleting a couple entries in the registry, fixed the problem..isnt google great?...LoL

I'm sure MS is already spending millions on developing the next "uncrackable protection scheme". I hear it involves an RFID and GPS-enabled USB dongle that contacts an RFID chip that you have to implant under your skin. Then every time you log in, the dongle reports to Redmond the exact location of the PC and its user that's accessing their operating system. Now *That is Sci-fi... <img src="http://images.stardock.com/wc/smiles/Laugh.gif" bord

Believe it or not the first thing I did was look for a way to turn that piece of cr^p OFF... If MS has no issue with Stardock modifying it then go for it! The intentions were probably great, but for a power user it is the most ANNOYING thing that can happen.. Perhaps it could be implimented a bit differently? perhaps for users with diffeent levels of experience.. Say a 7 year old gets on the machine to play games..

Hate to say it but Boss is right..nobody is twisting your arm to buy Vista, while I can agree the price is out of control for what the OS is...It really is just that simple..Buy it or dont... I imagine the OEM version of ultimate will drop rather quickly if you can wait it out, should give you plenty of useful time to perform the upgrades you need t

Most computers today will struggle to run all the features of Vista at full speed, but maybe in a year hardware will catch up to Vista. Im Im going to have to disagree with that entirely... Im running Vista Ultimate on a machine I built a little over 3 years ago, and according to Vista's cute little rating system the box rates a 4.0 which apparently is a pretty decent score with 5.9 being the highest on their scale... 4.0 is your lowest har

Well...1 hour isnt all that bad considering the volume of information being converted to different formats for burning to a readable DVD... at least I dont think so...and I think that time will be cut down as technology moves forward..
