Would this have been why my computer restarted the other night?

bet they've made it crap to push more peope into Vista.

I bet it'll also shut down if it detects illegal microsoft software (like vista does) fuck that.

Vista doesn't shut everything down anymore either, keep up to date.

Vista is a much better OS when you go into it a little. Very resource hungry though!

I use Vista at home and XP at work. Liking the RCD with SP3 as it tells you the domain you are connecting too. Very useful indeed.

SP1 fucks up my sound drivers on Vista. Awaiting for new drivers to be released before i can have SP1.
