Windows Vista Headaches

by Jason Bean on February 26th, 2007

If you’ve been watching TV, you’re probably already aware of one of the biggest seeming annoyances of Windows Vista. Security alerts. The newest PC and Mac ads illustrate the challenges poetically. I find it somewhat challenging that the biggest complaint about Microsoft’s operating system has always been stability and security, they fix many problems in Vista and still nobody is satisfied.

As with everything, it’s all in how you execute, not just fix. For more information on other areas Microsoft could have improved things visit the PC World website.

You can read about the security annoyances and many others in PC World’s article “The Most Annoying Things About Windows Vista“.

    I have a problem with my m8120n Qindows Vista Media Center by HP, Quad core, blah blah blah. THe problem is not the 5 major problems that everyone talks about , its a thing when i right click. the screen cuts black for a moment then returns, when im mulititasking it cuts out for up to 3 seconds. soemtimes i dont know whether or not its going to re appear or I just lost all my data. Ive been living in paranoia for 6 months now. it only happens once in a while, when the system right-click menu changes. I tried just about every visual and graphic tweak. Any thoughts???
