I bought this pre-installed on a HP AMD computer. I have had it for a year and a half and the entire OS CRASHED recently . I cannot boot it up past the password and I took it to an expert, and they said I have to erase the VISTA OS off the computer from scratch and reinstall the OS. NOT COOL! The other problem is that I can get safe mode to work (that is how I know it is not a virus,) but I cannot download the patch that could probably fix the simple problem! I awaiting another OS that is more compatible with an AMD. Please be cautious in purchasing this OS

Vista only lives up to what it supposed to be only if your computer has all the right hardware to support it. Majority of computers that came with Windows XP should stick with Windows Xp. Vista has as many reqirement's as a new Computer game, and you need to exceed all requirement's for it to run the way it should be. NEVER TRY TO MEET THE MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS, doing this will only allow you to use the software and not let it perform the way you want it. UPDATE YOUR HARDWARE TO EXCEED ANY MINIMUM REQUIREMENT FOR YOUR SOFTWARE TO RUN THE WAY IT IS MEANT TO BE RUN. If you are on a budget than you should stick with XP. It is still a great product and I still recommend it most user's especially people who use it with their current computer right now. If are considering buying a new computer and choose Vista, please customize your computer for it to exceed your specific need's. Any computer that you see in store's that may be a bargan or look's cheap to buy is probalably living up to be what it is. A "cheap""worthless" computer, something you wish you never bought. Salesman are all the same; from selling computer's, car's, house's, etc. They are there to sell you what they have and make a profit off of it. Computers decrease in Value just like cars and homes. Value is kept if you take care of your computer same with anything else. BOTTOM LINE, MAKE SURE YOU HAVE THE RIGHT HARDWARE FOR YOUR SOFTWARE TO PERFORM THE WAY IT SHOULD BE.
