Run XP off the Windows side of the Mac for any business software you just absolutely can't run or replace on the Mac side. There is the heart of the Mac problem.. Why run 2 OS when you can do it with one stable one, that you can get all the software for? |

If these are virus or spy-ware problems then both of these Vista computers were shipped to me with the viruses or spy-ware pre-installed. The very first thing I install on all my computers is Anti virus software.
I will check on the memory thing but there again, both Vista computers reacting to the memory that came pre-installed in them is highly unlikely.
I am pretty sure that the majority of the problems I was having with the Pukeway computer is that one of those Vista updates was corrupt. I thought I read about that somewhere.
If it is a software issue, I don't know what to do about that. I upgraded all of my software so that it was compatible with Vista. These errors occurred at different times while using different software programs so I can't even correlate any of this to one program....other than Vista. I even checked to see if any of my keyboard keys was sticking.... LOL.
Maybe I need to update all the Nvidia drivers they keep pumping out. Maybe I need to update my BIOS for the mother board too. Other than that, I am out of ideas.
Here is another thing that happens with this system EVERY TIME: When I use the Spell-checker here in the forums, the spell checker finishes up with checking everything and then sits there on my screen, (forever) until I click somewhere inside the spell-checker window box. It's almost like something doesn't register that I clicked on the last "ignore" button and it waits for me to do something. Then the window that says "spell check complete" will pop up for me to click on the Okay button. I happen to believe that it is a hesitation in the Vista system itself that causes most of the trouble I am experiencing. But who really knows.

Why run 2 OS when you can do it with one stable one, that you can get all the software for? It's not a problem, it's a plus! You don't need to run ANY windows software, you can do everything you need for life and business with Mac stuff, but for the weak-minded and fearful who need their crutch, the windows side is available FOR SOFTWARE AND OS YOU ALREADY OWN! And it's the Mac OS that's the stable one. The Windows is just a mere shade, a Window Shade, if you will, of The Real Thang. But nice try! ;D |

Weak-minded? pfffft... LMAO
I would call it weak minded that some think Mac rules the earth. Especially when they have to install a second OS (Windows) to run the newest software releases because they are released for windows first. If Mac were a viable entity they would produce and release new popular programs for the Mac at the same time or first.
But nice try. ;D

My Mac's code name is Chuck Norris. When Chuck Norris goes off the cliff, he doesn't fall to the ground, the ground rises to meet him. So CRASH upon the ground, you windows devotees, but I shall land crash-free! |

Yep see out dated. Chuck is just about ready for a Walker these days.. LOL What is this Crash you speak of.. It has been low many a moon since I have seen a crash. And so it was, Windows walked forth upon the face of the waters, it's halo shinning forth for all to see. And Mac wept at it's feet, slowly sub-coming to the depths, begging of Windows, "How might I be like Thee O Great one?" LMAO |
