  • Windows sucks, use GNU/Linux.

  • I love all your videos, I'm glad someone is as angry with windows like I am.

  • i got sp1 on my vista and its much easyer to use than regular vista

  • I would fix her computer.

  • well sorry vista sp1 isnt compatible with your intel i386 processor running at 12 MHz

    -.-

  • pft women. she should just leave the table and the discussion, she has no idea on what shes talking about.

  • i have 5 year old computer

    cpu: 3.2Ghz Hyperthreating

    m/b: Gigabyte

    2Gb Ram

    and GeForce 8600 GTS

    and everything works gr8 for me!

    You can't get it to to work because probably you are stupid..

  • just "upgrade" to UBUNTU GNU/LINUX thats all...

  • shes not very smart really, vista is for up to date hardware not for your old ass 2001 computer. And now that you look at it today vista seems more logical to upgrade to considering even the 7600gt has a vista driver. All those who wish to call vista a peice of trash should "at least" no to fucks about a computer and buy some up to date hard ware

  • Vista has errors & flaws.

    I took 1 GB mp3 player & copied data from it to a 1gb flash drive, & vista complained it is out of space...

    I could do it in smaller increments fine, but all at once? No. It does not work. There is plenty of space, but it errors out.

    XP does the same job with no errors or problems.

    Vista is a scam.

    XP is easier to use, & works faster too!

  • It's a beta it will be glitchy, i got sp1 vista works fine.

  • Vista is so ownage that it owned her.

  • Vista was tested in latest technology. So if you older technology, it won't work.

  • lady, my pc is about 3 years old installed vista because i wanted to try it and i havent got a bsod all drivers work with sp1. i recommend u get a new pc and throw that piece of crap u have...

  • this lady is an idiot

  • Why do you think the show is called crankygeeks

  • It was beta in November 2, 2007, when this video was made/added. Plus, complaining about beta software is pretty stupid.

  • there's no way in hell i'm installing vista sp1.. every service pack for xp has fucked up my machine, i doubt this is any different

  • nyce wA 2 take da pisz

  • breasts

  • lol show show show show ROTFL

  • i have vista sp1 and the reular version and both i have no problem with either i dont see no issuses with drivers besides my webcam but my webcam is really old so i wasnt suprised about that it bairly worked in xp so im going to buy another webcam a better one but everything else is great

  • I had a few issues with pre-SP1 namely with the Explorer Shell and TortoiseSVN. Since SP1 all of my issues have been resolved and Vista actually works very well.

  • I admit SP1 was a failure, it wont let me use Vista Visual Master, but i found a way... its call restoring your FUCKING HARD DRIVE YOU FUCKING DIP SHIT!!! Took me like 5 minutes to restore it to normal... wait till SP2 and im sure it'll be better plus as they say many times ITS BETA!!!

  • i installed service pack 1 yesterday... i checked before i instaleld it that my pc used 375 mb of my 1gb of ram now its using 675 mb of 1 gm of ram wtf vista! but hey ill just go buy 4 gbs of ram...

  • what vista Security? I played Counter Strike for 30 minutes before the damn thing booted me out of the game asked me to allow it!!!

  • None of her drivers worked? LOL wtf kind of pc was she using? a win98 based one? get real.

  • What about Direct X 10 thats good?

  • dumb bitch, go buy a mac then and stop whinging. Jeez people shit me. When you install new shit like beta you should download the latest video drivers and update other stuff. So many fuckwits out there that want to live in the past but want vista to fly. Pull your finger out of your ass and spend some money and buy some decent hardware. Bloody hell sick of wankers like these whining about Vista. Mine flies but hey, I know how to use a computer....

  • That woman is really annoying...

  • I am going back to xp until 2009/2010 When i build my gaming pc!!!

  • XP Rocks - Vista sucks, SP1 sucks a bit less - not much.

  • people who hates vista suck

    ya just have to accept the fact that everything changes

  • Does NOBODY remember how fucking awful XP was when it was first released??? It was even worst than Vista. This lady might want to upgrade her piece of shit PC that she built back when XP was first out to something that can handle vista lol of course its going to run like shit on system thats from fucking 2001.

  • installed it, 2 hours later xp sp3 was back in my pc... vista is like me a huge piece of trash when it comes to performance its actually a joke....

  • Vista SP1 works wonders for me.

    Also, how the fuck are you guys getting driver problems? Encountered none so far, and I custom built my PC.

  • Vista works GREAT for me too. How old can your hardware be to NOT be able to use it with Vista??? Try using your XP drivers. My scanner works fine even though it has NO official vista driver. I just used my XP driver and app and it works like a charm. Stop the Vista hating already.

  • Things have changed, SP1 has solved a great deal of issues and Vista is growing to be a desirable operating system.

    People always get antsy about new OSES, they should just be ignored.

  • SP1 is a piece of shit . I couldnt get online with explorer so I uninstalled it now its fine . dont use xp1

  • i'm not being rude or anything but the next Windows is Codenamed "Vienna" right now, not Vennice. some people are also calling it Windows "7".

  • that girl probably hut her system in half and then tried running SP1 lmfao..

  • ya she's a bitch shes just saying that because everyone else is and she wants to be popular. No one likes her and no one will ever like her.

  • that women is a bitch! she doesnt know wat da hell she's talking about. i've had vista for a long time now and its perfect, no comaptibility issues, its heaps good.

  • same here no real problems.... theses people are stuuuupid... up date update you damn software people!!

  • she's a liar and woman arent good with computers anyway. and i ahvent heard anyone have any drivers issues. there wouldnt be any. A service pack is just a rolup of previous rleased updates plus a performance fix. And it fixed exactly what microsoft said. Women lie about things as stupid as their age u think i am going to believe her.

  • lady just made it up

    lol watch 00:25 to 00:35

    first she says that the friend from microsoft is a (he) and than a (she)

  • lady get a new computer

    lol she probably is is trying to install windows vista on a pentum 3 computer with usbs 1.0 and just put a dvd room...

  • I have had no problems at all with windows Vista on my machine, none, so I don't understand what all the complaint is now.

  • Vista is a complete flopp

  • The girl says "I'm sure there still working on it" no duh! it's a betta, not the final release.

  • Was...this is unbelievably retarded. They're running out of reasons to get people to buy new versions of Windows? How bout that it's fully 64-bit dipshits? Unless you want to use XP 64-bit, in which cause you are in fact a moron.

  • you dont install a beta

  • why are all girls dumb as shit.

  • WOW whatta bunch of fairies. Just like all Microsoft haters. "I haven't used it, but I hate it." Nothing works because you are using 10 year old hardware. I run a computer lab (new - 5 yrs old hardware). All run Vista. All drivers loaded. No beefs with Vista or Vista SP1. Go use Mac, fairies. I'm sure the 8% of the PC market will help you out and I bet your freaking old hardware will work. Oh wait, no it won't. Go cry in a corner.

  • Jeez, is that how you guys pronounce 'beta'?

    bateaaaa

  • yes that is how beta is actually pronounced .. Fag.

  • Move to America if you think that. Dickhead.

  • Downgrade?

    When you compare hardware requirements and compatibility, I'd say XP is a serious upgrade to Vista.

    Anyway, I mostly use Ubuntu. Don't hate.

  • XP is a joke, have you ever looked at taskmanager how it uses 2 or 4 cores? Do the same on Vista 64...you obviosuly aren't the brightest light in the chandelier.

  • Ad hominem attacks- good choice of tactics when you have little info to back you up.

  • The girl gives me a huge urge to just punch her in the face. I swear, only idiots can't work with Vista. I've been using it for over a year now and it's been running fantastically. Fuck all who can't get it to work, and spread bad rep. Just fuck em.

  • U too!!! haha, so deserves a punch in the face. Theres nothing technical to what they talk about, useless information thats obvious.

  • why migrate to vista?

    Because it rocks your socks lol

  • Lol not really.I like the interface but not all that other thigns

  • Vista SP1 "beta" BETA!!! Sometimes I question M$ about stuff like these. The fact that there was a beta makes SP1 sound more like a risk factor than anything else.

  • "The only thing good about Vista is the security"

    What a clown hehe

  • windows vista change the kernel of the system!

    i love ms

    they did it!

    make windows more unstable!

  • The Final windows vista SP1 is came out in march.

    Go to microsoft dot com

  • The Final windows vista SP1 is came out in march.

    Go to microsoft dot com

  • If you have a new PC Vista is fine and that is where the future is. I would like to know the specs of here computer. In with the new and out with the old!

  • This girl is stupid. Its lie. I just instally yesterday vista sp1. I don't have any problem with hardware or drives. I dont' have any prb so far. overall media experience is better. Just seems little long startup time.

  • no she's on the mark. Vista is a lemon and deserves to be treated like ME.

  • russkeller, how do you know how savanc's system runs? Do you always accuse people of lying without knowing the facts? I runs Vista 64 SP1 and I can tell you that it's really reliable. I guess I'm being blind too, right?

    ....sigh

  • theblackwidower, my computer tower only cost 500 dollars because I built it myself. I purchased all the right components separate. I don't only use my computer for HD editing and CS3, I was just stating examples of the most CPU labor intensive programs that I use to show you that Vista does run great performance when equipt with the proper hardware in professional situations. I have yet to render a Lightwave scene using radiosity in Vista. I'll have to get back to you on that one.

  • Lol shes freakin dumb i just got the official sp1 from micro$oft and they boosted startup time and bootup time and yes fixed lots of bugs just to tell you vista is finally stable i recomend it to any1 running smooth with my 512 mb ram pc :D

  • fucking dumb woman cant get graphics drivers working? lol

  • Wow, she is fucking stupid!

  • one important fact about SP1:

    The SEARCH opiyon in the start menu is GONE! that's because for some reason Microsoft decided that we should use 3d party search software.... THUMBS DOWN microsoft!!! i really don't know what they want to achieve with vista! it's getting worst !!!

  • Honestly people, you're computers just suck. I use Vista for HD video editing and CS3 Suite and I never have any problems. I just built a brand new tower for under 500 dollars. 3.0Ghz 6400 64-bit procesor, new mobo for PCI-E slots and 64-bit, 4GBs PC6400 800Mhz RAM, 512MB DDR3 e-GeForce 8600 GTS graphics card, and new tower case and power supply. all under 500 dollars. I'm going to pick up a 500GB SATA drive and 4GBs more of RAM soon. Then I might get a second GeForce to running CrossFire.

  • Just stick to facts, we don't need more sad people like you using YouTube for hardware bragging rights.

  • STFU! they can all go suck MacCock for all i care Vista are for ppl that have the want of a new and better OS and it will win....one day!

  • How is it better?

  • Stop your complaining, do you really think that your three year old computer is still up-to-date in 2008? Hardware needs replacing constantly, deal with it. I'm sorry, but I have to completely disagree with this entire discussion. These statements are complete and utter slander by a group of Mac lovers. Vista works great on my computer and I have owned it for an entire year. There really are no bugs with Vista, it's people's old hardware that causes the problems. Hardware doesn't last forever!

  • Thats a lie, i'm using a sony vaio vgn ar41m which isn't all that old and its breaks and fucks up constantly

  • Ha! Everyone take notice. THIS MAN THINK VISTA HAS NO BUGS!!!

    HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH ROFL LMAO omg...

  • DisabledKoala, you know my HP? It's running Vista, now SP1, and it's never crashed, only 1 when I was doing something else while installing a hardware update. Now, that was my fault, but my computer is 3 years old and run Vista like XP with a 2.0 Ghz P4 with no viruses and a lowly used HDD.

  • Same here, running Vista 64 and stable as a rock, even all the IE7 crashes I had on XP are gone. And as for multi core processors; XP mainly used the first core, Vista actually does an excellent job of dividing the workload.

  • 66oc, as a reply to me?

  • Yes, as a reply to you. Yes, I know, this YouTube commenting system sucks.

  • Well, sometimes it works.

  • But the thing is, if you don't need a high end system to run the particular applications you want. Why get a high end system?  Because everyone else is doing it? Because the grand masters at Microsoft tell you too? Lets be serious here. There is no reason to but Vista, XP works on more systems and does what we need it to do. That's all one really asks for right?

  • theblackwidower, your saying "Why get a high end system if you don't need it for all your applications?" Well, 1) GrandpopProductions PC is a $500 PC as stated and it runs Vista fine. I don't consider that "high end" 2) Atleast you aren't a Mac fan, blech! Atleast you use XP, lol!

  • Actually, I use Linux.

    I'm sorry, maybe I'm just cheap, but $500 isn't chump change. Plus I prefer laptops which cost a lot more. There's one other major problem with Vista, it throttles down BitTorrent...or so I hear.

  • Who uses bittorrent anyways....sigh

  • "...it's people's old hardware that causes the problems. Hardware doesn't last forever!"

    I agree, but Mac hardware sure lasts helluvalot longer than WinPCs. I have on old PPC G4 that runs Mac OS X Tiger, but it can run Leopard. Old Macs tend to have better resale value than WinPCs do.

  • Mac hardware doesn't last longer, it's a myth. Now let's say assume that a Mac can run Crysis; I'm 110% sure that no PPC G4 can run Crysis in an enjoying way. So stop with the nonsense.

    And as for resale value; that's a myth too. PC x costs $300, same Mac costs $1000. Both sell for 50% less after a time, that means the PC sells for $150, the Mac for $500. Does that make the Mac have better resale value? C'mon, use some brains...sigh

  • "I'm 110% sure that no PPC G4 can run Crysis in an enjoying way."

    Crysis can't be run in an enjoying way on many computers. It's nothing more than a benchtester really.

    The only thing that's a myth is your notions that Macs don't have resale values. Macs have proven to have better resale value, you can find many articles on the internet explaining why, so it's not a myth, it's a FACT!!!

  • Again, you confuse resale value with the sales price of the used product. That's like saying that a Ferrari has better resale vale than a BMW.

    As for Crysis; you do know what I'm trying to say here, otherwise what would be the reason for you to buy a new Mac when the old one does just fine, that's just plain stupid, so your whole argument falls apart like a house of cards.

  • I also want to add that good resale value is not the only way to benefit from a particular system. I just upgraded my motherboard, CPU and memory for a lot less than I would have to pay for the Mac and the old parts go to someone else who doesn't have my requirements, another saving for both parties. I don't see Mac users switching motherboards...sigh.

    So even before a PC is sold, lots of users are already cashing in.

  • NO LIFE ALERT!

  • "NO LIFE ALERT!" says Sror3d who plays games all day...sigh

  • Lol no I do not. I just make videos about games when im bored :D but you post about 600 comments on one video with 500 characters lol

  • Sure, he makes videos of games but doesn't play them....fool a monkey! hehe

    2 minutes of typing is in no comparison to you playing thousands of hours of computer games every year, not only that, also spend hours to make videos about it (amkes you really wonder why????). Now if these were mature games, no, they're so chilidsh that even my 6 year old wouldn't play them hehe

    (And he says "no life"...laughs out loud and walks away)

  • My point proven that you have no life by ranting on and on about something you have no idea about. I only have 10 videos and they are from my favorite games. I do no play them for years.

  • Mr no life again with his games, go pac manning or something like that LOL

  • Wow speaking about no life what are you sitting at the computer hitting F5 on your inbox to see if I have replied yet?! I just got home and you already replied holy shit NO LIFE!!

  • Here's Mario Bros, now be quite ok and don't come back again after 9 minutes hehe

  • Are you still talking to yourself?

  • i got the vista sp1 rc1 and my pc works fine. many people have problems with vista because they have old crappy hardware. and off course windows has its own usual problems and crashes that happen from time to time, but they rarely happen to me.

  • I'm using Vista SP1 RTM v6.0.6001.1800 and I have had no issues what so ever. Things I have noticed in SP1 are large file transfers are faster. If you have more then 1 HD, Defrag can now scan them both automatcily if you choose to do so. Sfc/ scannow now scans 100%, a lot of people were having problems before SP1 with sfc scanning only 98% or lower. Startup and Shutdown times have increased a little. And Finally Readyboost now holds cache after coming out of sleep mode.

  • "I can't get any of my video drivers to work!"

    That's NVidia's fault. They have a 80 page ranting page about their sucky drivers. Everything else works perfect. Vista is great using NVidia 126 drivers.

  • my brother had vista and he had problems trying to even play games on it and i told him straight out go back to XP vista isn't worth it yet.

  • blah blah blah...when Windows XP came out, everybody was saying stupid shit like this about how bad of an OS it is and how they prefer windows 2000 over XP. but now with all of the updates that XP has, people prefer it over windows vista.

    people don't understand that a new OS is a new version of software and it will take some time to get used to, especially with Windows operating systems. people just cringe at the fact that they may need to get new hardware...GET OVER IT!!!!

  • thank you. We've seen people say the same about xp when it came out. Vista works just fine for me... I have 4 gigs of ram... but hey they thought 512megs was a lot back at xp time. I know someone who has 16gb ram... now that insane.

  • Cranky Geeks are idiots. Vista is fine, XP is done. Learn how to fix things and not wine about it.

  • Vista SP1 RTM has been leaked to the public. If you do a google search you can find it to download.

  • yup you are right I have it. but they are delaying the release due a bug. not sure if they will make another build or just wait till the software it afects gets corrected.

  • According to microsoft the bug is small and doesn't effect a larg number of computers, for those that are effected there will a hotfix update. I don't see them recreating another build when oem companies are already installing the RTM build on vista pc's.

  • yeah it looks like the RTM is still going to be the RTM then.

  • I can honestly say to every1 that sp1 did little on my computer. It still feels the same without the sp1. But the thing that pissed me off the most is that it takes for ever to transfer files from Disk C to disk D... Vista SP1 has no noticeable new features. Its really just a bunch of crap and made my computer 12% slow. I will go back to Vista with no SP1. Every1 who is saying that vista sp1 did good with perfomance is lieing, trust me.

  • if microsoft was to release the best os ever better than anything apple or linux has people would still moan about it. and i hate when people say get a mac theres not as many virus on a mac well i bet you if apple had more market share like microsoft there would be shit loads of virus for it.

  • you dont know anything about computers!!! lol

  • "I can't get any drivers or hardware to work"

    Sigh, how stupid can people be..

  • I already have a clean install with SP1 rtm intrgrated.

  • I am running the final sp1 released to manufacturers earlier in the week and it has improved performance big time! I think I am finally ready to tell XP goodbye!

  • Does SP1 actually do anything? Maybe I'll pirate it early if it imporves network transfer and overall preformace.

    But I am telling you right now, it's been proven that XP runs games at higher frame rates on the same machine as Vista. Dual-boot and install the same game on both and enable a frame rate counter. You will see a difference.

  • Nvidia actually released drivers in december which drastically closed the gaming gap between vista and XP. Also Sp1 does improve performance quite a bit especially with overall application response, and file transfers and copying, etc. I have also noticed my internet access is a bit snappier too. maybe not quite as fast as XP, but it sure is hell finally feels like a finished OS.

  • I'm just gonna wait until it's released in a month. I read many comments and aparently it doesn't improve speed at all. Well a service pack is basically just a bunch of windows updates rolled into one so go figure.

  • I already have a clean install with SP1

  • Anyone can go to TPB or P2P and download it.. I just don't see a point. I installed SP3 for XP and it did nothing. I doublt SP1 for Vista does anything either. Tell me, what did you notice?

  • Better perfomance... a lot better

  • Really? For some reason I don't believe you.

  • Why would I lie?

    I hate Microsoft, but I must tell that you can really feel the difference.

  • I know sometimes when you upgrade it 'feels' faster when it really isn't. It's just your mind making you want to think it's faster, when there is no real difference.

  • Then don't install SP1.

  • much faster, but if you don't believe the reactions, don't ask the question :S

  • thewolf32, why do you need to keep repeating that you already have SP1 with a clean install?

  • Because i fucking want to

  • No, because you want to look cool admitting that you already have Vista SP1 when it's not available yet for average users. But guess what stupid ass, everybody with some brains knows that you can get a copy if you visit warez-bbDOTorg or forumwDOTorg, but you're too stupid too think that you're the only one who is smart....NOT.

  • Yes I'm idiot and want to look cool

    Go fuck yourself

  • lol

  • vista works fine. i got a celeron 1.6GHz,

    512KB Level 2 Cache, 800MHz Frontside Bus and 2047 RAM. as long as you have good and new hardware, unlike lady and the video thats probably trying to install a crappy graphic card from 5 years ago. i multi-task all the time, download lots of movies, while watching a movie or surfing the web no problems, yea its a celeron. if u got the RAM and decent video card your golden, dont install crappy things from years ago.

  • I bet if you run that machine with XP it goes 300% faster and it's been proven no matter what specs, you get higher frame rates in games in XP and XP has more compatibility.

  • i had xp when i first purchase i was scared of vista like most. but i've learned as long as you have good software and good hardware your golden, i like vista graphic appearance xp looked so old now. but to be honest the experience is no difference, i do notice my resources are being used way more in vista but it hasnt affected me in anyway, not with gaming or even burning videos. startup maybe a few seconds slower but im satisfied with the overall better improve design with vista .

  • redneckboy6983, you said "im satisfied with the overall better improve design with vista" yes, but you only talk about looks and at one point you even say that the experience is no difference. Makes all no sense...sigh

  • Windows Vista SP1 Beta RC is Out I own it

  • and I own RTM

  • Vista is crap

    When will Windows users realize that?

  • Well I got vista and it works perfectly.  No problems at all... Zero, nada, Perfect. I use really heavy programs like all cs3, Maya, and Avid. So I wont realize it because, it works perfect and doesn't hang or crash on me what so ever and is really fast.

  • Funny, have you read some blogs of people who actually work for Microsoft, who are part of the Vista team? I guess you didn't LOL

  • Not as fast as XP SP3 hehe

  • vista > everything else

  • XP > Vista

  • Long life to GNU/Linux

    Feel free is grate

  • we don't go to Linux videos and say "Windows vista rocks" do we?

  • hmm that woman must be trying it on a mac or a 15 yr old pc. i have been running vista ultimate since it came out and betas since before that. have only had minor compatibility issues. far more stable than xp home atleast on my built systems. and hell every windows version has had bad reviews when it first comes out. people just don't like change

  • OMG lol that woman probably doesn't even know how to run a toaster. Stupid!

  • The woman knows nothing about Vista and talks a lot :P Who would want her as a wife?!Anybody? Im using the RC SP1 of x64 and it runs like a charm! it is notably faster than ever before.. Im loving it and am excited about its final release :P

  • "RC SP1 of x64" can never run like a charm, there is a reason why they call it RC and also any RC still contains a lot debugging code that should make the RC slower than the final version.

  • Nope. RC stands for 'release candidate' which means MS consider this releasable unless they find problems with it. As a result it wont have any added instrumentation that wont be in the final release.

    Speaking of broken crap, how about this new youtube comments box... (I went back to notepad).

  • Service packs dont fix nothing they are just security patches.

  • "Service packs dont fix nothing they are just security patches."

    That's totally incorrect and history, but also the technotes about Vista SP1, prove that you have no clue what service packs are.

  • The comments on this video are the BIGGEST LIES of Vista. Saying nothing works is bull----. Wait until Vista SP1 is fully released. Why you think users like me, don't have Vista yet? Use your brain, if you have one that is

  • im gona w8 for the full vista service pack 1 to come out for the public and then ill try that if i dont think it makes vista work keeping im going to xp sp3.
