Thank you to everyone who sent comments or advice about Vista. I have now bought a new laptop which of course has Vista. Jenny 11474
Hi - just a warning about service pack 1 which I recently installed. It made the OS unstable and it corrupted the disk. It's a known problem according to both Microsoft and Dell for certain laptops (mine's a Dell XPS 1330) and we've had to image the disk, (several times to be sure as it's got all all my 2 and 3yrs old's photos on, plus the images from my FH research and ancestors) then we're in the process of re-installing Vista from scratch before adding back on all the applications I had installed. Microsoft are going to be able to fix the problem within the next 10 days. Not the end of the world but just a warning for those of you, like myself, who see windows updates and install them. Good job my husband is a computer nerd and can help! Vista's great though and I love it ... just takes a while getting used to but loads better than older operating systems.
