Flash works fine on Vista's IE7.. You just have to know how to install it.

Just watched it - on a Vista machine - no problems with watching - apart
from the guy's just a dick!

"My machine's new!" He says - yep, so are many other cheap and nasty pieces
of crap new. I've got the thing sussed - those people having major problems
with Vista all have low spec or ancient hardware - they should stick to a
third rate OS for their third rate machines - I hear Linux is good - unless
you have high spec or recent hardware.

HTH HAND

Ha ha ha ... cool, very funny... loved it...

Still say Vista Rocks though...

With regards to flash, clean install vista has no problems. If upgrade then
as usual you have to unsure you have the latest version... not too difficult

Re: My response to Richards Urban, Urban legend....

And the reason you had to start a new thread instead of replying to the
original was? I mean other than drawing attention to yourself, which you
seem to enjoy doing.

Re: My response to Richards Urban, Urban legend....

What an idiot. I have Vista Business installed on a 2 year old Dell and
have had no problems at all. Flash works fine for me and so does other
programs. May be the operator and not Vista??????

If you are on vista and you cannot see the flash video read the following>>>

I wonder why flash installs on IE7 on XP and
on firefox on XP and vista.. but NOT IE7 on Vista?
Heck you can even install flash on linux with firefox!!!

Is it perhaps that VISTA IS STUPID??????
