I will answer several posts here.

Vista user, (his name says it all)
I want to relay my experience and I hope it may help others with some
of the same issues.

I shouldn't run AOL or Mcafee?? ,
that I didn't check vista drivers??, (I did)
You must not have read my post.
You said I was "trying to hack the number of connections". (I didn't
actually do this, I just said Vista's greedy limit is the reason that
UTorrent does not work with Vista), I suspect that the hack would have
been eventually necessary.

"And you trying to run software that is not vista compatible from the
manufacture"
Hmm. So I should just buy thousands of dollars to replace good
software for the privilege of having Vista?
The OS is supposed to be for the benefit of running applications not
the other way around?
In the case of Nero 6.3, at the time that I installed it, it was on
Microsoft's list for Vista compatible software and has since been
removed.




Dennis, I had two RAM chips, I ultimately swapped them around and when
I was running only with the bad chip, I had an instantly and
consistently blue screen.
I kept swapping to prove that the port wasn't the problem.
The computer ran fine with only the good chip.
My PC manufacturer. (Magic Micro) was very supportive and sent me 2
new chips with few questions asked. (I sent back the one bad and the
one good chip).

Vista didn't know it was still authentic after that and Microsoft
couldn't fix it.

I could have formatted and put Vista back on and it would have worked.
I opted not to put Vista on, mostly for the incompatibility and
possibly instability issues.
I say instability because the updates and authentication where the
only things that seemed to suffer from the bad ram after the problem
was fixed.

Frank,

I don't know why some people are so involved with the OS that if
anyone doesn't give rave reviews they take it personally and feel they
have to flame.
I guess they see it as an attack of their religion.
To me it is more of a movie review. You like the movie, I didn't.

Sumer Yamaner,

Thanks,
I didn't realize that indexing can be turned off.
PCworld said that it was "nearly impossible" and I never actually
tried.
