Yes, I know asking for help... but after two months of using it and dual booting I have decided that Ubuntu is the way for me hence the reason I now single boot Ubuntu... while yes it is a LONG way off from main stream it is in my humble opinion much better than Vista...and no one can deny it is MUCH more stable...... and I no longer need help just took a few weeks to learn the basics and from there you just can't compare... you really should try Ubuntu or some form of it; dual boot and see what you think.... anyone who is even remotely savvy can master it quickly and see the benifits.... I did and I have been a windows user/fan since my first 386 and back then if you can remember the alternitive to windows was GeoWorks.... probably dates me but it'll give you an idea of how long I have used windows and if I can be turned to Linux so can anyone!
I had to ask for help too mate

I did try ubuntu and a few others, but i was already happy with xp, i dual booted, i just wasnt in the mood for messing around learning something which i believe should of been made a lot more intuitive. It just angered me. I spend my days figuring things out all day and enjoy it, but for my desktop operating system i want something that just works, thats one area i have no time for complication, especially something as mudaine as driver installation, i had it all working within an hour or so, but didnt like the whole experience. I have nothing against linux, and when it can do something for me that xp cant, ill start using it again.

Im with you on vista though
