Down and Dirty with Vista
All you hear nowadays is how much everyone hates Vista, but no matter how much people complain about it the fact is, Vista is here to stay. Mr. Gates and microsoft have put far too much time and money into Windows XP's baby brother for them to give it up and mark it abandoned. No matter how you came by it, either being one of the few people waiting in line the day of its release, perhaps even paying an additional amount for a special signed copy, or perhaps you were an unsuspecting new nt buyer looking for the best deal... Whatever the case may be, Vista will be staying with us. Microsoft's team of lawyers made sure that every new PC shipped, had Vista pre-installed, even bullying hardware manufactures to only support Microsoft's baby, providing limited to no support for older operating systems. What can the average user do, but buckle down and make the best of it. Here are a few tips to help grind out the rough spots and show you what this new kid can do.

Dunno, but that, plus putting a check on the box next to it for MAXIMUM MEMORY is what cures my TDR problem in Vista.
