  • vista epic fail

  • seriously , I have not heard your show, but your telling the tech you know what something is and yelling at him for doing his job, he doesn't know you from Adam. just from watching this video I' m betting you had an infection. word of advice, next time let them do their job and follow their instructions

  • Vista is SHIT. Good job chris for trolling the windows guys, they deserve it for putting out that POS.

  • WGA= Windows Genuine Asshole!

  • Lol look at all the people typing...

  • OSX SUCKS I HATE APPLE!!!

  • DID YOU JAILBREAK YOU I DEVICE?

  • vista. yuck

  • this guy calling tech support

    fucking sell out then he talks like he knows best

    hahahahahahah!!!!

  • "your operating system here just gave my fits"

  • Was Chris really this stupid?

  • I feel your pain Chris.

  • Vista means death!!!

  • same thing happened me so i threw the fucking computer down the stairs

  • This guy is a copy of sales guy (look for "Website is down Excel hell", I can't inlcude link here) from this video, hilarious!

    I had Vista, have Win7 and have iMac and I have to say iMac is the most problematic one, shame they don't do MacBook Pro G4s anymore they were awesome!

  • hey hey its Chris Pirillo from Lockergnome 

  • I was like HAHA until I heard vista, and then was like.. ya been there.

  • mac

  • he scary

  • Holy crap it's Nova!

  • To all those people who claim "Vista isn't that bad"... this is the kind of shit we had to deal with when it came out. It took a YEAR for SP1 to make it a usable OS. I just went back to XP until 7 came out then got a Mac.

  • Damn, all the porn that he's been watching and it crashed his PC, that's why I got a MAC! :D

  • @GraphicsUnit Wait... You got a mac... For the sole purpose of being able to endlessly use porn without a fear for viruses?

  • @PenguInspiration No but I did get a MAC just because I would always get trojans on my PC, and I know with my mac it is safer to use it with downloading my files for anything i need.

  • @PenguInspiration Genius eh? No worries that all your porn will be gone when a virus wipes your system or makes it inaccessible! Macs are the safer way to surf porn! If that argument doesn't make you want a Mac, nothing will! haha

  • lol he said do you like mudkips

    

  • His problem is he was using Vista

  • Mudkips? the pokemon?

  • Lolz! Do you liek Mudkipz?

  • 'go to your search engine you'll find me' pfft chris, you aren't that big.

  • @RITSKIS Yes... yes he is. Or at least he was at the time of recording this video which was in 2007. He was the first result for "Chris" on Google.

  • @TalesOfWar hmmm yeah he still is for some reason I was thinking he was on about the auto predict thing they have but they probably didnt even have that in 2007.

  • @TalesOfWar and you can tell you're a Pirillo fan with your immaculate grammar. haha.

  • @RITSKIS There was nothing wrong with my grammar...an wtf is a Pirillo...??

  • Comment removed

  • the cursors mocking me!!!!! lmfao

  • Lol.. the tech guru doesn't know crap.. 

  • Thats what happens when Microsoft base there call centres in India!

  • 1:52 that explains everything!!! "windows vista" :D :D :D :D :D :D its statistically proven to be the worst system EVER!! even the good old windows 98 were better, kind of...

  • yeap...EVERY time i have had to call MICRO FAIL soft...I have received nothing but HINDU..india people that just say." dabba dabba dabba...have u did dis yet? have you put in corect name?" ..wtf...they loveto fucking talk over and THROUGH you interrupting damn near every word you say because they think they know it all when in fact INDIA is a poor country or ( was..not sure when that changed). I dont hate Hindu's but fuck..I buy product in U.S.A. i expect AMERICAN clearn english support!

  • Somehow it seems to be typically Microsoft-style to explain what a cursor is.

  • OH WHATS THIS?!

    HIS WINDOWS MACHINE CRASHES WHILE THE MAC STAYS SOLID AS A ROCK?

  • @Serial520 Yeah and a new update for your software only 99 bucks this time. Awesome!

  • @Brandon3060 Or you are smart and pirate everything and there are almost no cracks needed for anything because OSX has no registry...

  • @Serial520 I could do that. Or I could use Ubuntu which is 100% free without the risk of party van. But it's your choice dude. I have a Mac as well but I can't say I agree with Apple's software pricing at all.

  • @Brandon3060 The OS is basically free as there's no serial number for it...

    Ubuntu is cool and all but you'll be begging for a real operating system when you update a driver and suddenly your install is bricked.

  • P, P PEEEE

  • Shows you how good Microsoft is at tech support.

  • VISTA is a VIRUS!!!! XP and 7 FTW!!!!

  • and now hes using a mac! good for him!

  • talk so much crap about windows yet your getting all emotional when it doesn't work showing how much you need it, and reality all you do in most of your "internet shows" is talk trash about how much windows suck? what a show you must be really proud that all you have to do to have a semi successful show is talk sh*t about windows and bam! you have a show. so you wouldnt have a show without windows to bash on? or would you go on to bash linux? it must be in your nature to talk down on people.

  • @jay33011211 maybe he really doesnt know jack about hardware/software lmao....because personally I build custom computers and have used all windows OS's and now one has had a problem sence. So it maybe he has a prebuilt craptastic dell? Or even using hardware I have seen many people have problems with? never know unless he posts the specs of his comp.

  • .... TheGnomeLocker...?

  • he dang proud of the vista ultimate there :L

  • he had to call to fix that? WUT A NEWB

  • @krookedshocker Geek PHAIL FO SHOO

  • Dammmn xD my computers not as big/strong/powerful as yours (obviously) and vista runs no problem.

    Specs, 1.3ghz P4

    512mb's of RD Ram at 533mhz.

    256mb Geforce FX 5950 ultra,

    40gig hard drive

    And of course an extra cooling fan. xD

    (Which is a bit much...I mean it cools like a beast...)

  • lmao! He's so pissed! XD

  • A real IT Pro wouldnt have to call Microsoft for a fix. I have recently unsubscribed from Pirillo after his recent Mac fanboy behavour. I have never once had to call Microsoft. This guy is a noob. No wonder he went for Macs. He does not have the brain capacity for any thing so called 'harder' to understand. He moaned after 1 stop crash when it was not even Windows' fault! It was Nvidias! All he needed to do was go into Safe Mode then rollback the Nvidia drivers! Hes an IT Pro poser. Fail.

  • Have you tried turning it on and off again?

  • VISTA ROC- Wait brb think I blue screened.

  • Bet he was Asian.

  • Wait could you do a Rollback on the DRIVER CHRIS!!!!!

  • @dxproductions100 yeah dude it's sooo annoying and with Sony has well

  • Windows Bleeping noise :D

  • That happened to me a lot too, with the black screen and the cursor. I've upgraded to windows 7 and it still happens. a few days ago I was having an msn video conversation with my friend and my computer started freezing up so I rebooted it and every time I logged into my account, there was nothing but the black background and the curser. I'm kinda fed up with windows.

  • am a tech support geek myself and i know what chris means at 4:26 mins

  • I'm liking Vista. I've had a few compatibility issues, but for most of my needs, it's just fine. However, I did get the Windows7 upgrade disc, just haven't gotten frustrated enough to install it lol.

  • it is kinda of a weird call, i believe him, i don't think is fake (maybe a little) but man, P-I-R-I-L-L-O HARD!??!

  • P as in Peter WTF!

  • Cant wait for my Mac... When i get money for it... :]

  • NEVER BUY VISTA!!!! don't even think about buying windows 7 until a service pack is released. Use xp 32bit or get a mac!! For pro users like me windows is a obvious rip-off, they don't pay their workers enough to get the job done right the first time, that's why we have service packs!! Technology, and especially computers are in a serious problem. PC's are great only when you have drivers.

  • @bmw2go11 7 works for me! Hadn't one problems. Unlike vista crashed several times, 3 times in one day. I had to find all the right drivers over and over and over again. 7 is very nice and sleek works fine. It's 64 bit and runs twice as fast and loads better then vista.

  • @bmw2go11 HURR THATS WHY YOU HAVE TO PAY FOR SERVICE PACKS LMAO. You're gonna buy a mac, and install Windows on it? Why even bother paying for overpriced hardware in the first place then? Vista worked like a charm for me, even with 768MB of ram. Now Windows 7 runs even smoother! Sorry, you must be upset for paying over 1grand for a computer w/o a real OS =\

    Rage moar

  • @EndOfTheW0rld when did i say i have a mac? I said PRO users, that meaning i am quite intelligent working with computers; diagnostics, tuneup's, repairs, installing, everything except OSX. I hate mac's, they are rolling shit, i was told to fix one and i had to tell her that her imac's error was a hardware problem, so she had to pay premium to apple to get it fixed because she had no warranty left &other apple repair companies charged more (imo). That said, i am a die-hard PC user. ;D

  • I have a Mac, and I run Windows 7 on it. Win7 is a great operating system and a great step in the right direction for Microsoft. Don't bash Win7 until you try it.

  • @braddudeguy I tried windows 7 the only version that is worth buying is ultimate because it is compatible with all xp programs &drivers !! hooray for windows on releasing only 1 version of 7 with backwards compatibility!! xD Vista is another story.. :/ The comment i wrote 1 MONTH ago, since then, i have changed my mind about windows 7 ULTIMATE, the others, i have to wait and see in the service packs.... if it shows up.... it might be worth it with the other versions then...

  • Chris Pirillo calling support doesn't make a lot of sense does it?

  • @Paddis92 well it's windows vista

  • xp 4 ever

  • 7 4 ever

  • i had a problem just like that xD

    i re-installed XP, and after the 1st reboot, i couldn't come in anymore.

    i had to re-install 9 times that day, before it worked.

  • no no no WTF IT STANDS FOR "WTF!!"

  • I personally call windows vista Windows "Crapsta". lol

    I never liked it, so I'm happy with 7, much better. =)

  • This is why id much rather reformat and lose everything in situations like this because i just cannot hold my patience with the people on the other end of the line

    Them: Is it turned on?(well you can hear the sign on sounds yourself moron)

    Them: did you forget your password (no im logged into windows)

  • As a good tech support person, terrible tech support just pisses me off.

  • I hate the phrase.. "I can't get in"  it could be anything... cant login, cant find the program, cant open the program, program loads but file won't open, etc. Such lameness makes me happy to be away from residential support. If I have to deal with a noob, I just remote in. Entire call will be to get me to remote in and then I fix problem.

  • That fucking happened to me yesterday.

    Microsoft helped me heaps. Not.

  • how is it fake?

  • this guy is a complete idiot!!! if you dont know your device... then dont use it.... than blaming tech support.... jackass!!!

  • its not him, its vista

  • Sometimes you have to be smarter and more patient than the people trying to help you. Chris needs a little more patience and some manners. I've been there. Tech support will drive you nuts if you let them. Take a deep breath. Yeah, sometimes it'll work after several failed boot attempts. Go figure. That's why tech support will always ask you to reboot even if you state that you already have.

  • he used to be tech support

  • this is what I look like dealing with my com....p ... pu.. kt lller, oh no mine went on the frits.

  • whats with the live chat on teh bottom of the moviee!!

  • This guy is an idiot. He can't explain himself properly, he doesn't really try very hard to cooperate with the tech guy, even if they are asking some obvious questions (that the they are forced to ask). He won't even tell the tech support guy what the error message is, which would have helped alot. The guy is an idiot.

  • He was on the phone with them for like a hour before I started to record. Chris isnt new to computers and like me HATES scripted solutions on some lazy bums screen who probly has no clue how to really solve anything and makes you repeat the same action fifty times so they can get there time filled before sending you to second tear...GRR

  • how do you set up a live 24/7 cam like chris has??

  • you get an UNLIMITED broadband supplier and broadcast a webcam feed to a website that .. ahh screw it it's too complicated for 500 words.

    google it. but only if you have NO LIMIT on your bandwidth

  • pooooooooor cx

  • "Some choice words have been beeped out in respect to chris. "

    Chris is the one who said the word. Bleeping it out isn't respecting him. It's editing his words without his consent.

    Bleeping it out due to YouTube restrictions is a totally different thing.

  • He ASKED me to do it. Yes it also is due to youtube's filtering down of content, but mainly its because he requested it.

  • Ah well, OK.

  • WT(critical stop) Hahaha

  • lol at 1:42 P!!!

  • "Nvidia's drivers suck". ATi's are hardly any better.

  • Tech Support is practically nonexistant

  • "Yes. I cleaned cookies"...... seriously. Microsoft telling to fix the problem by deleting cookies?

  • I love that, just go to you search engine and search chris, you'll find me.

    That is just awesome that searching "Chris" pops you up first :) Must have the great SEO on your pages.

  • Do you like Mudkips? lol

  • "No, W-T-F. It stands for what the--[windows sound].

    Was this edited, by chance?

  • In Youtubes TOS it now states that the use of the F word is not allowed, which means that by editing this video I dont have to take it down edit and put it back up. Unlike alot of other people. ;)

  • im guessing explorer.exe was blocked by task manager or maybe he closed it so all the icons and start menu dissapeared

  • yep happened to me a couple times, and then had to go out for free and fix a couple units i installed too

  • something is not compatible with the system can fuck up windows

  • when i started it it says happy day

    hacked by wirrez

    and i could only see the windows background

    xD

  • if you call him a dummy then you have serious problems

  • microsoft support is for noobs. totally useless.

  • ha

    i hate computer stuff who doesnt work :D

    i had a virus like a year ago and i had to pay like a 1000$ to get it repiered...(

    so bad ass for him :P

    this happens :)
