Re: Vista & Ram??

Thanks all, just went for the easy fix and ordered another gig of ram from crucial.. Let you all know if there's a difference (so will my wife, that commercial with the Mac/vista guys came on tonight and I commented how we haven't had one error message with Vista where she replied "true but it is slower then our old XP" , never thought she noticed such things :) )

Well I've been running Vista for weeks now with no problems "except" it is a
bit slower then XP Pro, noticeably slower(boot up/shut down is much
slower)..

I'm sure you have thought of this but after an OS upgrade (and
regularly) do a disk defrag.
