  1. Okay, so after purchasing a new motherboard due to a non-vista related problem (I got angry with my mouse port...) the install DVD now results in a working installation (before, it was choppy and slow...). Questions.... There is a default image that windows shows as as thumbnail that looks like a beach or a tropical setting, has anyone found this image anywhere on their hard disk? Does anyone know how to get a thumbnail view in a folder, or how to enlarge the thumbnails you DO get? (they are so tiny!) Have you guys gotten the hang of virtual picture/music folders? (really a good idea if you ask me...) Anybody gotten AIM to work, or are we restricted to trillian/gaim? Anybody tried HL2/CSS with any success? I have not installed HL2 yet but I suspect that I should ask before I try... Does anyone think that the "tree" start menu is a step backwards? I think it's slow as hell, personally, and annoying. It would be cool if mousing over an object made it open, and then mousing off made it close (so you didn't have a bunch of open tree menus at the same time). That way, it could be like the start menu from 95/98/2000/XP but instead of opening horizontally it works like a tree menu. Anybody found anything neat or interesting? Cheers!
  2. how can i mess with my chipset drivers? also, i put in the disk to install my video card drivers and it never finishes, says i need to be in administration mode or something? its really screwed.. it always fails using the driver setup program. if i manually select and install my drivers i can get windows to use the ATI drivers for the Radeon 9200SE rather than the Windows Drivers... haven't been able to check the success on that one though, as vista is now reinstalling from the DVD... it started bluescreening and couldn't be repaired.
  3. its really frustrating, particularly because vista is the only operating system running on my box right now, and i can't re-install XP because i only have a USB keyboard and the bootable XP setup won't recognize the usb keyboard...
  4. I have an AMD Athlon XP 1.2 Ghz, 768 MB DDR RAM, and a ATI Radeon 7800 128 video card.. Same problem for me..
