Hello, I just got a new Dell Dimension E521 with Vista as the operating system. Vista Stinks! For most programs, including video and audio from XP Service Pack 2 Vista doesn't recognize drivers that were fine with XP Service Pack 2.Even Sonic and...
Go figure I was hoping to see a lot of fixes for this month.... yet, there aren't any and wont be any until April 10th of next month.... Oh well its just a month i'm sure we can make it! 
i install the pack on my computer running windows xp 2002 service pack 2 and i dont get the aero interface. i follow this link http://www.windowsxlive.net/?page_id=15 and i download it. i then install it on my machine and i get every feature in the pack except for the aero interface, which is the reason im downloadin it in the 1st place! can anyone help?
I have run the Vista Upgrade Advisor and it passed with the exception of a few older software issues. When I try to install Vista Home Premier the first screen I get is that my machine has an ACPI Compatability issue and can't install until fixed. I have the latest bios and when I check the bios it shows ACPI enabled. The device manage shows the computer is "Standard", not ACPI. I did have to replace one of the memory chips awhile ago. Here is my system:
AMD Athlon XP2400+
2GB Ram
160GB HD
Windows XP - Service Pack 2 (with all critical updates)
ATI RADEON 9550 Video card.
