      It's really not that hard to do a system restore, I can't explain exactly how to do it now though since I'm not on my Vista computer and am not able to till a few hours later. If the computer is relatively new with not much on it, then you could back it all up on 1 DVD-R, but that means you'll need a DVD burner, there are other storage devices that you could use, but a DVD-R is cheap and and pretty handy.

      Oh, and you don't need to do a system restore. It's just for safety in case you mess up your computer.

      Sorry for not being that helpful right now xD

      I guess pictures could help. I could try to get some screen shots from my Vista computer later.

          Cedega is a lot easier to install/use IMO then Wine, it may cost money but it's worth it. I bet you could find somewhere on mininova.com or isohunt.org easily.

            rushy, this fix is for a very specific lag problem. If you didn't upgrade to vista and aren't experiencing keyboard lag, then this won't work. I'd be happy to discuss your specific problem over pm's or msn.

              This didnt fix anything on my vista. Source says the problem is only with the ps2 port and not usb keyboards.

                As well didn't fix anything on mine.

                Things I do that HELP...

                - Set program affinity to one CPU (Since I run a dual core PC)
                - Install and update Java
                - Change browsers, Opera works best for me
                - Fail and play SM

                  I have not had any problems with my vista. Izzy can you post your computer's info to see if there is something different.

                  Mine:
                  Dual Core
                  4 GB memory
                  500 GB Hard Disk

                      Re: Vista woes? BEGONE!

                      So maybe it's because I have 2 GB of RAM more than you?

                        You dont need 4 gb of ram to run ffr. I have 2 more cpu's then you =) My xp comp runs ffr on **** specs. It isn't a keyboard problem. Its vista and flash.

                          That pretty much sums it up.

                            Hmm...two people who say they have no problems, they both have 4 GB ram compared to two, and both with a smaller processor than Izzy. Even though it's like you said, it's still kind of odd.
