Checked into moving up to Vista. Since I have Windows 2000Pro, the Microsoft site says that I can't just upgrade, I have to do a complete install. Which to me means all my stuff goes bye bye. Is it possible to get around this by first upgrading...
This is not for drivers, but check this Microsoft site for hardware compatibility: http://whql.microsoft.com/hcl/
Other than the microsoft site, where is a good place to get gadgets. I have seen some awesome ones on some screen shots but cannot find them on the site. Is there other sites?
I just bought a computer with Vista but I want to partition my hard drive to add XP because some of my software only runs on XP. It says on the microsoft site that you install the older operating system first, is there a way around it? Thanks...
i went to install vista ultimate from cd in windows, but when it asks me which drive i want to install on, it wont allow itself to be installed on the one drive i want it on. The drive i want it installed on is my Maxtor 300GB IDE drive. There is nothing wrong with the drive that i know of, because i had it as a secondary storage drive. now it says in a caution box when i have the drive selected...:
