yep unfortunately Vista has still got a lot of issues to iron out and if you wanted to put XP pro on you'd have to reformat your drive unless youve got the drive partitioned in which case you could make it duel boot and have Vista and XP pro, i have XP pro backup discs and live in Halifax if you get stuck, good luck

It's totally upgradeable, runs with an intel so can buy pc parts...and it doesn't slow down over the years so no need to upgrade

Lou's laptop is indeed a heap, to look at the spec you would expect it to be rapid, but it's got vista!

When you put the camera in it recognises it and asks for driver, but we can't find a driver for it that will work on vista, on a different machine with WinME it appeared as removable storage.

So, if anyone can find a mainboard driver for her laptop that will work with vista...

Other than that I don't know and you should probably go and throw it back at PC world
