Software Reviews of Microsoft Windows Vista Home Basic FULL VERSION [DVD] [OLD VERSION]
Customer Review: Flash Back To Windows ME
Summary: 1 Stars
This windows version is about as worthless as ME was. It came installed on my new computer and from day one was a problem. It isn't compatible with a large majority of hardware or software. It uses an enormous amount of system resources. I'm not a computer tech, but normally I can make a computer do what ever it is I'm wanting it to do, but with Vista I have run into nothing but problems and if you contact a computer tech with a problem and you tell them your operating system is Vista they automatically say variations of "that's the problem" and half the time they can't offer anything helpful because of the way Vista is set up to run. Do Not purchase!! If it comes installed on a computer you are purchasing invest in either a copy of Windows XP or an upgrade to Windows 7 at the time that you purchase the computer and save yourself a lot of frustration.Customer Review: Worst OS in the Microsoft lineup

Customer Review: worst OS ever!!!!
Summary: 1 Stars
PROs: none
CONs:
- freezes too often. Even if you just turned on your PC and opened your browser don't be surprised if you get the annoying message "(Not Responding)" rightaway.
- Uses around 1 GB of RAM BEFORE even starting any programs.
- Video capturing is almost impossible in some cases. Vista can't handle video capturing the way XP does, resulting in out of sync, skipping frames, slowdown, etc.
- Windows Movie Maker won't let you use external capturing devices, only direct transfer from the camera. Where XP lets you capture with whatever device you choose. Don't bother trying to get an earlier version of Movie Maker, Vista won't accept it.
- You can't alter the main volume. On XP you could compensate when watching a video with low volume or something like that by going to the Master Volume and altering the different levels. On Vista, you better have speakers or headphones for this.
...there are many other things but I guess I'd have to write a book about it.
If you have XP, TREASURE IT!! keep the back up disks, if getting a new computer have it custom made, but PLEASE don't waste your money or support this horrible OS.
Customer Review: I am not a very happy student
Summary: 1 Stars
I bought this pre-installed on a HP AMD computer. I have had it for a year and a half and the entire OS CRASHED recently . I cannot boot it up past the password and I took it to an expert, and they said I have to erase the VISTA OS off the computer from scratch and reinstall the OS. NOT COOL! The other problem is that I can get safe mode to work (that is how I know it is not a virus,) but I cannot download the patch that could probably fix the simple problem! I awaiting another OS that is more compatible with an AMD. Please be cautious in purchasing this OS
