Posted March 4, 2014 Because most of the people that used it put it on very bad, dated hardware. It required more resources than XP, and was a overall massive change, so many drivers and devices were no longer supported. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted March 4, 2014 I believe the original kernel for Vista was much better, but they changed it at some point during development to the shitty one that was used. Incompatible drivers, software. Often crashes. Was quite a resource hog.

Posted March 4, 2014 where's the nerd rage at? i thought this would be fun but there was only intelligent answers because it didnt impact alot of people, XP was (and still is for older machines) a very capable OS that gets the job done so using it for 2 life cycles wasn't as big of a deal....

Posted March 4, 2014 Vista has always been stable for me. Never had any issues outside of normal 3rd party software. That's the 3rd party vendors fault, not Microsoft's. However, i now use Windows 8.1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posted March 4, 2014 Generally anyone who had vista on a decent system didn't notice problems, it was really only the poor people who managed to get it on budget and entry level hardware that it proved to have issues, I have had it on one desktop and two lap tops with no issues. In fact I just re-installed it on a laptop for a friend. Grammar and spelling is not indicative of intelligence/knowledge. Not having the same opinion does not always mean lack of understanding.

Posted March 4, 2014 1. Times Vista has crashed = 8 , Times Windows 7 has crashed = 0 2. Average boot time compared to Win 7 = + 34 seconds 3. Average FPS Gain compared to Win 7 = -12 Avg Conclusion.... GTFO Vista Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

GTFO Vista it is same between 7 and 8.1 but they both have 0 crashes Computer users fall into two groups: those that do backups those that have never had a hard drive fail.

Posted March 4, 2014 It was a terrible product at launch, but many of the issues have been fixed. So most of the hate was because of how terrible it was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted March 8, 2014 I had a laptop with Vista on around 7 years ago. One day Vista did an update and the OS was ruined! It was about 3 years old, so I loaded Ubuntu and to this day it works perfectly. "PSU brands are meaningless, look up the OEM." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted March 9, 2014 I had vista on an old ibm thinkpad that had the minimum requirements for vista, it ran, I could get online, but that was about it lol. No one knows pain til they have used a computer with windows ME. I got windows 8.1 on my new desktop and after using it for about week, I really don't see why people hate on it so bad. I got windows 7 on my laptop, it has been having issues lately, I love windows 7 and it has been very stable for the most part, but after the last update for the nvidia graphic driver on it, it has been freezing a lot. I am thinking about digging out my old laptop and putting linux on it, but I have to figure out where I put it in all my moving mess lol.

Posted March 9, 2014 My old computer came with Vista pre-installed. I didn't have any problems with Vista, but once my dad put Windows 7 on it, the entire computer felt noticeably slower after that.
