The Choice is Windows XP over Windows Vista

[thesecuritynerd]

XP best for buisnesses.Vista is good for bullshiters.Windows 7 is good for people who like pretty.Thumbs up if you agree

[ejzllanes96]

XP the reliable

7 the XP modernized

Vista the sh*t

[888pineapple888]

yahhh....just fixed my vista pc........hopefually itll last awhile b4 it crashes for the 6th or 7th time....

[davidbuddy9]

I use Vista Service Pack 2 and I had No Problems

[Finnstudios]

@kevincarey Well Said...

[Finnstudios]

Vista...

XP is more business like, I don't care for it, and It came out in 2001

[KevinCarey]

I don't listen to consumer bullshit and the fact that so many people hated it I knew I had to try Vista and it blows away XP in so many ways its laughable. I hated XP in 2001 and now 3 service packs later I still hate it .

[AllTheBestTutorials]

13 people must have been drunk

[jannatvnetwork]

good vid We love it

try puppy linux live cd.it will change the way you look at OS

[Appule69]

I never used Vista because of all the things I heard about it. I bought Se7en almost a week ago, and it is simply amazing! I'm very happy with it!

[henehay]

Wtf is slowing down my internet, can't even watch this..

My internet speed is 8/1MB/s.. wtf..

[Omega231984]

Virus my friend, sounds like you need webroot and registry mechanic, them 2 are my only friends I use,

[T1DoDo]

thats youtube, it happens sometimes.

[notknown]

I might just be lucky, but I actually haven't had many problems with 64-bit Vista.

In the time I've used it, the only notable problems I've encountered are:

> Black Quicktime bar in Firefox 3

> Driver compatibility issues with Dualshocks

> One BSOD

> User Account Control (Obviously turned off now)

If I really need to, I have XP installed on another partition of my HD, so that basically solves the compatibility problems I have.

Maybe in time, I might get more driver incompatibilities, eh.

[KirisuteGomen1991]

I run windows 7 fine.. then i kept getting black screen of death ( not loading) installed again.. next day same thing again... so i went to install xp but xp files were missing wtf? so it didnt install correct. So i install vista ultimate no problems so far !!!!! but i now have XP SP3 on VMware which is great :)

[GreatDude2008]

I hate windows Vista, since i got my windows vista machine for christmas i have had over 400 errors with it. Including IE7 keeps shutting down. I put it bluntley i hate it!

[A190Simulations]

I used to have a real good time with XP, I had a TOSHIBA satellite L300 on XP, and I loved it. I had it for 2 years and then the screen driver packed up, and when i tried to reinstall XP i found out I needed to be able to read the LCD... hmm... problem.

Just about a month ago now I bought a TOSHIBA satellite Pro with Vista, and the only problems I've had with it so far are Internet Explorer closing down a lot unexpectedly, and the stupid Windows Security box that pops up all the time :l

[Airportchris2]

lol, you are very open to vulnerabilities, lol.

[MadeInChina35]

Vista has beening pissing me off. So as alot of other people have been doing. im trying to install widows XP on my vista running desktop and can`t for the life of me get XP downloaded on my vista running computer got anything to tell me on how to get my XP to download.

[DeltaPhi79]

@MadeInChina35 Well as old as your comment may be, reformatting your hard drive or installing it on another one and then reformatting the old one will and should work. With Vista and any other version of Windows, you can't install an older version over the one you have.

[BoboboBoBoBoboSucks]

@MadeInChina35 i use windowblinds 7 with a xp skin, so my vista looks exactly like xp

[armandornd]

@MadeInChina35 Learn how to use correct grammar right before you put up a comment.

[boxerpop82]

screw veesta get windows 7

[lonelyroadtofreedom]

nice firefox hat

[npc223]

whenever I start control panel, windows stops working completely and has to restart. it had been like this since I bought it. windows will not replace it, or provide me with a copy of xp

[TB674]

i dont care about speed when im just on the internet anyways, and my vista is speedy enough, but windows 7 is the best!;D im usin it now:P

[unforgivingrunescape]

I hate vista, it's just impossible to use. Like lets say you just wont to add a printer.....SLOW

[WhatTheCrapItsAlex]

Its slow if your computer is completely garbage. Vista has a ton of new functions. all you have to do is go to MSconfig and disable some start-up items.

[laffytaffy636]

vista was just buffer for windows 7. Vista is there just for microsoft to make a ton of money off a product that was obsolete in like a year

[nelizmastr]

hey, have you noticed all the thumbsdown?

XP FANBOY INVASION!

[DavidPlim]

man xp is awsome. if any macfag so much as talks about it we kill them lol. we dont mind them talking about vista lol

[nelizmastr]

theres nothing awesome about it, those bright colors kill my eyes, only Zune theme is acceptable.. and besides.. its 8 YEARS OLD, ITS ANCIENT. all XP lovers.. its time to move on

[DavidPlim]

i dont give a shit. mgs1 is old but im not giving it up

[wnmetal666]

you might want to do some research on to what exactly you're moving on to.....NOOB....

[nelizmastr]

Windows 7 rocks. faster and way better looking than XP. and of course very stable and secure (hail to the Vista base)

[uvmedraco]

XP is still more mature, ill wait before i keep windows 7 on my laptop lol

[nelizmastr]

agreed. 7 has some issues here n there. a lot less than Vista tho. Vista needed 2 servicepacks to make it live up to its standard.

[fernbap]

If you hate it, why do you use it?

[CDTNC]

XP Pro now , skipped Vista for sure, Windows 7 , hmm maybe maybe next OS for me,Dude 5 computers , LOL , yeah woot FireFox hat LOL who he txting with ha scrolling on da video WTF that about ,LOL

[dude54333]

wtf he haves like 5 computers O_O

[AmH032uTuBe]

WHOO! FIREFOX HAT :P

[ComputerHelpGuy1]

I want one

[AmH032uTuBe]

yeh :P

[ps3gamer164]

the only problem ive ever had with vista was that my computer is kind of old, used it on a brand new hp laptop and it ran SOO beautifully.

[silverstonewebcam]

vista ftw

[Imprezaman555]

i am using vista with all of my old xp programs and the uac (user account control) can easily be turned off. just google it. just learn to use it and it will reward you. even if i switch to mac like i am considering i will continue to use both vista and linux as a triple boot system, weather it be vista, linux, and leapord on my dell or future custom desktop or all the mentioned OSs on a mac. whichever way it goes, i know how to use vista, and i like it. and thats no coincidence.

[tamainemiller]

you people must have some suck ass computers!!i had xp but it got too slow for me??? i put windows vista home basic on it!!!i so damn good!!!i love it

i have a

compaq/hp presario v5000

1.8 ghz lol not that good but works for me

80 gb hd failing soon. its causeing the bsod!! hate that

[ErichH68]

We'll see just how smart M$ is come time to release Windows 7. If they change course and remove all the new Vista antipiracy systems running in the background that cause needless S L O W down and create hardware nightmares they'll succeed if not more of the same if not worse. People don't want this technology nor is it practical or efficient. Lose it or continue down the road of lost market share and customer alienation.

[nintendogreg]

i have had no problems with vista but what do i know lol

[gorpin03]

I'm a hater!!!

[gjk0005]

vista is waaaayyyy slower. try to delete browsing history in IE7 in vista, takes like 2 minutes. takes about 2 seconds in XP, and a split second in firefox.

I now work on xp. the vista pros certainly don't outweigh the cons, and vista is horrible for office/business use. would never use it for work applications.

[Dskull88]

My comp is flying even with Vista. You need to know how to speed i up

[leogoler]

bullshit. vista is simply a lot more fun to use and it is more stable then xp.

[gjk0005]

more stable. LOL.

[utubegurl1]

its good for Windows to have new features and look but ive heard bad things about vista

[ytbobbyl101]

I bought a new "power" computer Nov/07 when the old one died. I had it privately made and opted for XP instead of Vista due to the complaints. I stand by my decision.

[karam94]

Christ Pirillo lol

[lowd0se]

Mmm potatoes...

[Coraxuss]

Microsoft's only survival is to implement designs from the long dead Longhorn project and put it into Windows 7.

[neills]

Windows 7 isn't a full fledged OS. Its what Vista was supposed to be, and its only for people who don't own vista. Vista in its whole is just a beta, and 7 is supposed to be the real thing. I don't have confidence in it either.

[jeffrey246]

xp would crash maybe every 2 to 3 months

vista - i am lucky to get a month - i did a backup with w2k - when it crashes i boot w2k and restore vista to c: (formated) drive - nero7 backup works well haven't tried it on vista - vista would be off my computer if i didn't have this apx 25min fix (i haven't had to activate the restore)

[TheRedComa]

OK, so everyone's griping over Vista and the majority don't seem to care for it much, but do you think it will age well? I say in a few years, after a few patches and the hardware catches up (even though by today's standards it's still too much of a resource hog IMO) Vista might not be so horrible.

[Mikola2385]

If someone can help me out I would Appreciate it.

[Mikola2385]

I want to build my computer so it can run games to the highest Performance, highest graphics, I dont care about price. I know I need a 768mb graphics card, and at least 2gb of ram. But how about Processor, Dose a Processor have anything to do with the performance of a game? And if so what is the top of the line best Processor for a playing games? Also dose the motherboard have anything to do with performance? Or anything else? And what is an Optical Drive, and hard disc?

[RAWfart]

The mother board has a lot to do with games and so does the processor

[biglou250]

The only thing I like about Vista is Direct X10

[ruihu908]

Vista Sucks, USE LINUX!!!!!

[erwinvan]

Linux is not for normal people XD

[snoodracoon]

o rly? Linux is better than Windoze hands Down man.

[plexiflexi]

I prefer Wins98 but unfurtunatly can't run it because some programs need XP. Win98 was reliable, it never gave me problems, easy to tweak and used to run way faster than XP even on my old 1.3 gig PC than the XP on 3.3 gig I have now. I don't want Vista because I know it'll be even worse.

[daclaycomb2006]

Continued from last comment.

I had a beta version of Vista on my old desktop and I liked the visual side of the OS, but I had no internet or sound. Knowing that it was a beta version I didn't really take it into consideration, since it is Vista compatible from the factory. I looked at this like I had with my experience with XP (the more expensive or cheaper version)? I went with the more expensive version [FINAL HINT: OEM VERSION WAS ONLY $165 + SHIPPING COSTS) No complaints!

[tru3a5ian]

u get used to the sercuity notice things...i like vista :)

[joesatube]

Vista is like Windows Millenium. They both suck, the only people who used it were the ones who ordered pcs built with it and don't know how to get rid of it. Hopefully the next version of Win comes out quick enough before XP support dies off.  My suggestion is to go with longhorn with the xp engine in it like they originally intended.

[v3flashv3]

hey

i can't get onto live[dot]pirillo[dot]com

just says page cant connect...

[RENDERsilent]

lol know whats super funny my grandpa bought vista and put it on his old windows 95 compac computer lol.......

[ihelpyou5]

lol, im not a busniess man, and i do not need vista for the things you guys need it for. i use vista for gaming. i agree, i mean vista came free cause i ordere my coputer in a certain time range and i would not pay 99-250 dollars for it. thanks though

[mewrox99]

vista has it's issues yet parts I like of vista so I dual boot. For the curious here are my pc specs. Intel Core 2 Duo E6400, 4GB DDR2 800 RAM, 2x 250GB SATA Hard Drives, Palit Nvidia G Force 7600GT, Windows Vista Ultimate, Windows XP MCE 2005

[THEgamer342]

I bought a hp dv6000 with windows vista i also have a windows xp media center disc i am thiking to downgrade should i PLZ help me i hate vista it is bull shit

[holman182]

get ahold of HP and get that XP disc. you'll be better off for now. don't get me wrong, Vista's nice, but for now you'll be better off with XP. right now, the only thing Vista has going for it is visual.

[TheRedComa]

98SE all the way!! Forget Vista, I STILL hate XP haha.

[holman182]

you know what? i used to say the same thing (about 98SE and XP). after using XP for the longest time, though, i've fallen in love with it. don't get me wrong, though. i still love 98SE just as much as when it first came out, but i'd have to say that i love XP equally as much. its given me no problems, ever.

[TheRedComa]

Oh def, I'm sure the same will happen with me once I make the switch (I'm gonna have to eventually, anyway lol) but I just can't part with the simplicities of Windows 9x. Hell, its the first OS I started programming in, so because I fully understand what makes 98SE tick, I feel the most comfortable in it, security-wise, ease-of-use-wise, etc. Maybe it's just a programmer-thing, lol.

[holman182]

lol yeah, could be. i'm not entirely sure why MS didn't stick with 98, though.  maybe improve upon 98 because its one of their most stable OS' out there and they don't support it anymore. no one does, and its sucks so much. i loved it, still have a 98SE CD, and if MS still supported it, i'd continue using it.

[gjk0005]

lol.. that's just stupid. xp improves on the old architecture in every way imaginable

[holman182]

chances are, you probably haven't used 98 quite as heavily as i have. and which architecture are you talking about? because now there's three. i could customize in ways that XP users couldn't even imagine. don't get me wrong, though, i love XP. thats what i'm using right now. but i think soon i'm going to save up and get the 64-bit version of Vista Ultimate.

[zeldadude09]

I still have and still using a windows 98

[Fireinme81207]

my old desktop has 98, lmao

power supply went on that beast after 9 years, not bad, trying to revive it and use it as a mini home server

[MrArtistGuy66]

..lol I have vista and I noticed a thing.. Xp uses about 300mbRAM with nothing on (turned on), and vista 600-800MbRAM I have 2gbRAM but vista takes just enough mb RAM to make my computergame leak .. so now I'm using A 1gb USB to boost up my RAM (= ReadyBoost).. so vista has a good disign and all but the performance is not realy good.. :)

[TheTutorial]

Man do I have a problem with Vista. My problem is that its horrid. I hate it. Its a sorry excuse for an operating system. Windows XP is now almost ancient and I can guarantee that a Pentium 4 with 2 GB of ram and a ARi x1950 will beat any top of the line Core 2 Duo with 4GB and a ATi 2900 XT.

[QuestMaster4]

I have vista i hate it. Its alot more annoying its faster than xp But it will have problems with internet explorer where it just shuts down for no reason. The new word is very annoying alot more confusing. Id love to revert back to xp

[LessthanJake14]

Get Firefox.

[Alastor221]

It makes it seem very strange to know that an Apple laptop can run Windows Vista better than a normal PC. I was like, WTF when I heard that

[LessthanJake14]

Not really.

[Alastor221]

Don't believe me? I'll send you a message of a link to prove it

[Strideo1]

Microsoft should be making the OS slimmer and more efficient not more bloated and graphics intensive.

[teekeegod]

I have XP but I want to play the new cysis game in DX10 and have to get Vista and a new video card too, so I have to pay all this money and deal with a half baked OS, when all they have to do is have XP support DX10, and write games using openGL... or make cards that you can flash the new direct X into, cuz my card is stacked(675 core 820 mem) and they don't get to much faster right now and don't need to pay $500 for a freaken DX10 chip.

[TheGnomeLocker]

Im still sporting my old antique Windows XP OS here, having no problems with it at all. Its also fast enough for my taste at the moment.

Vista or XP? For me its Vista, but for other's I can see how Vista can look promising, after all XP is a OS thats over 3 years old..Quite a few years over that. So its time is coming, but I will ride my Model T tell Vista gets straightened out.

[NartSaga]

Vista or XP? For me its (HE MEANS XP) Vista, but for other's I can see how Vista can look promising, after all XP is a OS thats over 3 years old

[TheGnomeLocker]

Nice catch, thanks.lol

[oakaleafy]

potatoes!

[JullzY]

Windows Vista is Quite Fast i have a mac and vista is more faster trust me Leopard is slow like 16 secs.

Leopard is nice. but i prefer vista.

[fragalot]

16 seconds of what?

[flushdereal87]

in mac computers u can look at a program without having to open it..

[flushdereal87]

the new macs rather..

[fragalot]

no you can look at documents and files with OUT having to run the associated application for it. Like Word documents, Acrobat files, etc.

Anyone can "look" at a program with out opening it on any OS. Duh.

[coreyman2000]

Vista For me everything works perfect no issues with both Toshiba lab top and custom built amd x2 Pc

[boobyman]

I was at a "PC store" today. We talked about vista. The salesman told me that more and more people are becoming mac users because Vista was such a catastrophe. One thing I don't get, they even sold "downgrades", by that means. If you have Vista, you can downgrade to XP ( without formatting your hard drive) which made me suspicious.

[shortfu]

seriously, vista is going down the shithole.

[fragalot]

Vista hasn't come OUT of the shithole. No one wants it, no one really NEEDS vista, so it's a flop from the start.

[sirdogsnout]

Vista was designed for halloween, use it today!!!!

[kpslover]

I have vista, and it rocks!

[fragalot]

I have Windows XP, and it rocks too!

[techtipsforparents]

I manage a 300 PC network. I bought one Vista machine a few months ago. My user is SLOWLY getting used to it, but all the specialized software we use makes it a pain. Just ordered 60 more PCs from Dell... with XP.

[stoniez]

vista to xp is easy on Toshiba you just got to know the hardware, and have a M$ compatible usb floppy drive for the sata drivers, or know how to use nlite :)posted here first as a good gesture the Sony model MPF88E is a compatible devicethat us not listed by Microsoft.

[BUTCHCRAB]

HERE, HERE!! Fuck MS! I am a PC user. Open office, WINKS, email, utube music, and a little super info hgy is all I need. Why do I have to put up with all this geek shit?

Right now I mostly use a spare laptop my family only use to operate the wireless router and DSL Modem in the house.

It has a Intel Pentium III Processor that is 747 MHz while I have 384 Megabytes of Ram. I highly doubt I am going to update to Vista anytime soon. :)

[microsoftman10]

no problems with windws vista what so ever

[idiotonuni]

me too I don't know what everyone is complaining about

[alexhinksman]

its because they listen to everyone else, they probably haven't tried vista.

[fotchy2206]

I had bought a brand new laptop(hp dv9205us) it came with Vista, I added nothing to the computer except firefox and an antivirus software, I gave it about 6 months and just couldn't take it anymore, I downgraded it to XP, wich is what my three desktops are, and now 6 months later it still runs great with no problems and loads of apps in it, my 2 Mac's(1 desktop, 1 laptop) have OS X, if Microsoft doesn't get there shit together, it will be all Mac's from now on

[dryendspirit]

the fact that MACs only control less than 5% of the computing world, and the fact, even in the 80s, the pinnacle of Apple they controlled only 14% of the computing world, i really believe Macs are of no harm to windows..

[alexhinksman]

fair do's. I use mac os x, I do run vista as a virtual machine though. There are a few programs written for windows that I need for college and I enjoy using vista. (ish)

[ursad]

No problems with vista on my desktop, but my laptop is another story but a few weeks of doing little bits here and there, its working fine, not as fast as when it had XP but still good, and really the problems i had with vista on my laptop made me learn so much about Vista, i know not every one wants to but im likeing Vista :)

[DavidDude96]

leopard owns vista

[willteddy09]

I still use windows xp! its awesome!!

[egoneoteo]

history repeating , i remember execly the same yada yada yada about XP saying that 2003 server was better , or when windows NT was better then windows 95 ... people will complain until the real power users will come out and give the real reasons for why vista is better then XP

[ArchiLinux]

except that this time people have alternatives. Ubuntu gets better with every release and Leopard has roared out of its cage Wowing almost everyone. Also not to mention the fact that Macs now are more affordable.

[robertsdoug]

Gave up on Vista the week it came out. Why go through all that junk with vista, when XP works just fine and is faster.

[egoneoteo]

yeah , just wait until another OS is out and people start complaining about the new one , then you can use vista , becose its not new anymore , lol

[DaMirrorLink]

I'm a game player and I hate vista >_>

[scottwatt47]

Vista has caused me some problems as well. It freezes a lot on me. its my hp, i didnt return it, i use it for fun and unimportant things. I got a Macbook for any important things and such.
