When you Upgrade to vista, You Degrade your prossessing power!

When you Upgrade to vista, You Degrade your processing power.

More of the CPU cycles are used for the OS itself... how much more?

50% more! The hard drive thrashes more, the ram is full and not free for the
applications,
and the pipelines are full of traffic that vista itself generates...

I am currently running a triple boot with XP, Vista and Ubuntu...

The only OS that bogs down the system to a point where its irritating (for
doing multitasking not simple stuff) is Vista...

ubuntu leaves your system without unnecessary stuff running and thrashing
disks!
XP if tweaked a bit becomes a lean mean processing machine!

So if you have a single core, say 3 GHz, and you upgrade to vista,
it will me like you have a 1.5 GHz computer...

If you get a new 4 core CPU its like you only got a 2 core one...

So basically an upgrade to vista means a degrade in your hardware
performance!

And not to mention that vista often freezes all the computer with its buggy
and unstable
hidden processes, like the dreaded "trustedinstaller". How many times have
you seen slow copy,
or frozen windows explorers? Its crap!

When you see something calling for trust.. well then DON'T trust it! lol

And a Happy New Year to you too

Do you have some benchmarks that prove this or are you guessing?

I have found the multitasking of Vista and its responsiveness in the
servicing of devices to be one of the bright spots in my upgrade from XP. I
don't know why more don't rave about it. It is so glaringly apparent to me
as an improvement.

Yesterday, rendering a 5GB video file with CPU at 100% I was able to open
Internet explorer, surf, perform maintenance on my PC with only minor
slowdown apparent. Doing the same tasks in XP would have had me waiting for
30 seconds for a window to open or an application to load. Mouse clicks
would go unrecognized. Vista is just so much better at tasking and it has
more tasks going on.

I have never seen what you asked and I am on a 2004 HP media center machine,
with AMD 64 mono-core processor; USB everything--scanner,printer, wrls KBD,
& mouse, webcam, IR blaster, remote control. I am dictating this with the
fantastic voice recognition with CPU hovering between 2 and 24% as I speak.

I had two problems with the upgrade. Webcam no longer worked in powered
hub, but had to be plugged into the USB port directly, and FM radio isn't
currently possible using over the air digital TV on my tuner card for some
unknown reason. It did work in XP media center. I'm certain these are
hardware/driver installation issues, not wholly Vista.

On the whole I love Vista. It must suck being you.

How much ram do you have, are you using vista 32 or 64 bit?

I suspect that you are trying to lie to us..

even on dual core machines Vista is too slow for my taste.

You need to get two etch-a-sketches.

Whats the problem Frank? Still drawing in the sand with a stick. Your idea
of formating is to mix up the sand again with your foot!
