Vista: 150 problems, 0 solutions | |
|

| Time: 06:43 EST/11:43 GMT | News Source: APC Mag | Posted By: Kenneth van Surksum | ||

Microsoft likes to boast that Vista is better than ever at logging difficulties with software and suggesting solutions through its Problem Reports and Solutions feature -- but for an OS that's been in final release for six months, the number of actual solutions is a tad on the minimal side. Here's the sorry evidence of what actually happens when you try and get Vista to heal itself. This is a true story, and none of the names have been changed. | ||

Uhh, I've had 15 solutions come up in the "Information" area of that thing, and most of them are useful. When I tried to install the uGuru from XP on Vista, for example, it didn't work right. When ABit released the new driver this showed up:
"This problem was caused by GURU microprocessor on the ABIT motherboard. GURU microprocessor on the ABIT motherboard was created by Abit. Solution Download and install the driver for GURU microprocessor on the ABIT motherboard from the manufacturer's website. " Alot of the suggestions in this are useful, this was just one example. Also, it's better than NOTHING. Most of the "problems" aren't really problems at all; anytime something crashes, it will end up there if you submit it. |

One more stupid anti-vista article... Why bother with that?
Can you bring more interesting news please... |

I've had at least a half dozen solutions show up. For AutoCAD 2007, Wireless NIC drivers, Visual Studio 2005, SQL Server 2005, just to name a few.
This guy is pretty naive to think that the software he uses is representative of the software that everyone else uses. |

| #2: Because eventually the comments on this article are important as well... get the idea? |

| I didn't even know that feature was in Vista. I guess I run good stuff. |
