Being the tech geek around here you could try to help me out instead of making pointless comments.

That's the thing: I can't access my hard drive! I can't boot, and I don't have the repair DVD!

That's a bit harsh considering I was joking and that this is mountain of spam :/

And it sounded like you already had the solution with your dad's idea of installing 2000.

Belaslav 12-06-2008 05:28 AM

Well, you calling me nub over and over again was beginning to sound harsh too. :/

As for 2k solution, I'm not really sure about it since I have a dual core processor, and I'm worried that it might not really be compatible. Well better wait an' see.

Dynamics 12-06-2008 05:30 AM

I assure you I intended it in a joking manner, but sorry since it offended you.

The 2000 should work with the dual core, since dual cores are backward compatible. It'll just use 1 core if anything.

Belaslav 12-06-2008 05:34 AM

Kk, I say we're even now. :tongue:

Only 1 core you say? I guess then I'd better get Vista fixed, or save up for XP.

Dynamics 12-06-2008 06:00 AM

Actually, I think service pack 4 of 2000 has integrated dual core compliancy.

This has a few answers, http://www.tek-tips.com/viewthread.c...1273347&page=1

It'll suffer a little in performance, particularly with heavy duty tasking but with small tasks it'll be mostly fine. XP's pretty good if you can live without Vista's shininess.

Do you plan on formatting or are you trying to recover your old Vista?

Vista is just fail from the start

Vista + HP = uber fail
HP decided to install a 32bit Vista OS on a 64bit computer and expects me to pay an additional amount to upgrade to a 64bit OS
:hulksmash:
that is the family computer

I <3 my Windows XP
Dell is bleeeeeeeh though
want a Lenova~

Ralath 12-06-2008 08:17 AM

I have an HP Vista 64-bit and it's worked perfectly fine. n.n

It's a little annoying to have to approve an application everytime I want to launch it but that's probably because I haven't figured out how to get rid of it yet... >.<
