FJager 0 Posted December 20, 2007 Report Share Posted December 20, 2007 Bought a new PC and it uses Vista as its operating system. Problem is the system keeps freezing up and it is starting to get frustrating, apparently a lot of people are having similar problems. Can anyone help out please, otherwise I think I will go to XP.

IanB 0 Posted December 21, 2007 Report Share Posted December 21, 2007 A friend bought a new Dell PC, and they recommended XP over Vista on the new computers as they were having way too many problems with it...To be honest XP is great...They have Vista on the works pc's, its a bit fancier than XP, does the same job but more problems to iron out and has trouble with a lot of existing software...
