    Actually just tried running a Vista Upgrade on my machine this evening ... gave up in the end because it didn't think I had any hard drives. Not sure I can really be bothered spending any more time researching how to do it ...

    So did Vista come with the drivers for that particular shredder then? Is that why he finally managed to successfully get Vista to load?






    EDIT: What would have been funnier is if he had put in a TFT display in the shredders waste basket and when he pulled open the basket you actually saw Vista running, Americans no humour - huh!

    His point is not to actually prove that Vista runs in all conditions but a simple and elegant flame at ***(dang censorship, I meant Microsoft) so don't be blaming the good ol' yanks And I personally don't blame that guy one single bit!I mean who the hell would stop a project (Longhorn) 2 years in the development and go for a new OS ,abandoning all the revolutionary features in the process ?! That's why Vista is the mere glimpse of what it should've been and why we're expecting Vienna in 2009

    Obviously that's a better thing to do then sort out your driver issues, hold on to it until more drivers become available, or even return it to where he bought it from for a refund.

    Because clearly Microsoft are concerned that even though they've got your money, you shredded the disk.

    I must be an idiot. I've been using Vista happily for 2 1/2 months with very few problems, when I should really have shredded the disk.



    (Not forgetting that he's probably kept his install key, so he can just use another disk, or download an iso. He might also have got the 64-bit version and that was the 32-bit disk (or vice-versa. You can always order another 64bit disk)).
