    Re: Is Vista really that bad?

    I have Vista on my computer, and I like it. Right now I'm no my brother's computer and he has XP and it freezes a lot and takes forever to do anything. Based on this, my reference is Vista.

        This will never happen since people just dont understand that it is not that bad. Use the right set up on Vista and it will run just fine.

            Pretty much use FF cuz IE just blows with Vista, and on mine, dont use the FFR Beta, I lag a whole lot, but it could just be me. So use the reg. or ffranotherway. Other than that, FF just makes it perfect. I can play with AIM, SM, and other programs up and no lag at all. So yeah. XD

                FFR on Vista does not work. I have a quad computer with Vista thats worse than a single cpu desktop with XP. And the Vista computer was just bought a few months ago, and we had the XP computer now for like 3+ years I am sure. My dual core laptop with XP runs much better as well. Actually it runs the best.
                Dual core laptop with XP FTW!

                    Once you try my laptop you'll never want to switch back.

                      Re: Is Vista really that bad?

                      I downgraded my flash from flash player 10 to 8 and it feels exactly like XP again. woot
                      9 and 10 were both lagging like pregnant sloths though. 8 Seems to have done the trick...I didn't really test it much yet but from playing a couple of songs I can see it's at least not lagging...I couldn't tell if it went off sync though.

                      So i was lagging badly with flash 9 and 10
                      Comp specs:
                      Intel Q6600 (2.4 GHz quad)
                      4 GB DDR2 ram 1066 MHz
                      1 GB of GDDR

                      I mean it worked perfectly on XP as well, but still I wish vista would be alittle better XD

                      PS:
                      It seems to still be alittle off Sync, just got 25 goods on starlight...well I guess that's better than what I was getting on 9/10

                      PPS:
                      Does anyone know anyways to make it perfect? Yes I'm running firefox

                        Re: Is Vista really that bad?

                        Okay, I'll be very honest..
                        I've played on an XP for my entire FFR career..
                        Now today I was at school playing on a Vista..
                        my god so many goods..
                        But as I continued playing on it my good count kept decreasing..
                        so I was like..
                        Wtf?
                        I come home and play on my XP..
                        And out came some amazing PA..
                        I'm not sure if Switching back in forth between the two since it takes a really precise time window for Vista to be a Perfect or what. but I like what I've gained.. Vista isn't so bad for that now.

                          Re: Is Vista really that bad?

                          i am on vista as we speak and its not THAT bad, i mean their are a few flaws in vista (being able to delete the recycle bin) but its not something to bitch about lol FFR wise i cant tell if im just not used to laptop keys or if its vista but i get a lot of goods on every song.

                          BTW i figured out how to replace the recycle bin the hard way =.=

                          EDIT: i just played a few games and the goods are gone if you DONT use the beta. so vista+FF+nonbeta=win lol
