Computer Woes and Vista

Posted by Fay on March 9, 2008

Bob and I hate Vista.   Since we are both technology people we figured it was time to learn Vista so my new laptop has that as the operating system.  Yuk!   Besides the fact tha nothing is where I expect to find it, it isn’t faster. There is no doubt there is a lot to learn that will be helpful to both of us as we help other people but we are being baptized by fire.   The wireless went fine at first and then all of a sudden it just quit and not even the wired connection worked.  We called in help from friend Greg, cousin Steve, Microsoft and many help teams on the internet.   Finally after days Bob got it working after we restored the operating system.   Left my files thank goodness.  

 Now Bob has been working for almost two weeks to get it to update the Vista patches.   What a mess.   At least I can use it.  Here is a picture of what we call Command Central with two of the three laptops we have down here.
