If you want to get rid of the security prompts you can turn them off in the security center via control panel.

Vista is especially for users who have their work related to multimedia. Windows XP is better for normal use. Do spend more time with your wife because the laptop will take away most of your quality time from her. Smile

JCEMT it goes this way with Vista. It wasnt made for people like me. My problems are as follows:

1. Cant get all the programs I was running with XP to run on Vista.

2. Games wont download even though they say they are vista ready.

3. I cant get half my updates from windows for vista and the damn fire wall keeps fighting it.

4. I am running Norton 2007 and get all my updates. Reason I was givin is that Norton 2007 doesnt have all the vista requirements.

I am about half tempted to go back to Windows XP. At least there I knew what I was doing.

I have 2G ram and it states that I need more and I have a high definition graphics card and when I run the trouble shooter it states that my graphics card cant support.

What does all of this mean? VISTA has become my worst nightmare!!!

Hey cajun!! Glad to see you. I got a laptop for Christmas and it has Vista and I am not quite sure what to think about it. Just got it connected to my internet. Wanting to get a wireless connection,, but that will have to wait for a bit. My other computer had XP. I have been working on getting everything transferred to it. What a mess.

Do hope your wife is feeling better soon. Take good care of here!! Actually I know you will. Look forward to seeing you a little more.
