    where can you report bugs to Microsoft?

    Where can you report Vista bugs to Microsoft? I am thinking
    particularly of the net connection diagnose and repair feature which
    doesn't do anything, unlike XP where it deactivated and reactivated
    the adapter forcing it to work.



    Also when will SP1 be released, the beginning of next year or the
    summer, and what sort of features (apart from bug fixes) will it have?
    Currently I have big problems with my HP Officejet 7310 printer, also
    SSL has changed so Agent and Eudora don't work properly. I read
    somewhere about SP1 improving printer support.

    You can read more about the changes in Vista RC1 here: Windows Vista Service Pack 1

    As for your troubles with your printer, have you checked the HP website for an updated driver? I do not wish to sound flippant, but even that may not help, as HP has a horrible track record with regards to Vista support for their hardware. You may just be better off purchasing a new printer. Canon has really good support for the range of printers, including some of their older ones.

    SP-1 is probably going to be released the first quarter of 2008,
    probably nothing more specific until Beta testing is finished and
    release is imminent.

    As for printer support, do not expect it.
    What has HP said when you asked them about your printer and how they
    plan to support Windows Vista?

    To contact Vista technical support about a problem or concern (i.e. more than
    giving feedback to MSFT) go to this email form page.
