V1
Got my parts, got what I need
Just gotta put it together
Active cooler and some new thermal grease
So my new CPU will not fry

V2
So many times, I've clocked it too fast
Hot swapped my BIOS for glory
But not again -- I'm learned so much since then
I just hope that I don't cause a fire

Chorus A
When I find all the drivers that's when I'll know it's right
I've got all the components I desire
I've got new SATA cables and some cold cathode lights
But I don't know if I have the right
Vista drivers

V3
Motherboard mounts in the case
I put in two brand new hard drives
Don't have to wait, 'cause they're both solid state
Add two more, now that's four, in RAID 5

Chorus B
But I still need the drivers or those hard disks won't write
Without them, this whole project's looking dire
I've installed several RAM sticks and the optical drive
But they won't do me much good without
Vista drivers

V4
Final piece falls into a place
Lean and mean, power hungry
DLLs have been giving me hell
With a flick of the switch it's alive

Chorus C
It came down to the drivers, though they put up a fight
I can see my performance soaring higher
Now with my best screwdriver I'll make everything tight
And I finally found all the right
Vista drivers

Those damned Vista drivers
Nvidia drivers
Creative sound drivers
I hate Vista drivers
They're still Longhorn drivers

wow, thanks you guys. seriously, im assuming you put a ton of work into these songs and get absolutely no return from it besides us lowly mortals saying "thanks" in a super long-winded way

[PaletteSwapNinja]

Hey, the kind words are appreciated, long-winded or no. :)

Dude vista isn't what it used to be, it pretty usable now. And with windows 7 on the way XP is starting to look it's age.

[DILightning]

Fuck Vista & 7 im gonna stick with XP Pro :)

[DrClawizdead]

GLEN!

GLEN! GLEN! GLEN!

Irony? I was installing Vista one day and listening to this on my iPhone. Now I use W7, AMD/ATI, and 16GB RAM, and I use a iPod touch. Vista was a bitch. 7 is ALOT smoother

[anthillify]
