I have been trying to install Vista Ultimate (64 bit version) for days.
Literally. Tried swapping hardware, changing BIOS settings. Disabling
everything but the minimums to run. No luck. Continued to get the BSoD
with STOP error 0x0000001e. Almost giving up, I decided to flash the

I am trying to run the 64 Bit vista upgrade. It says it requires XP Service
Pack 2. I only have service pack 1. I cannot find the download for XP

We bought Windows Vista Home Premium *retail* for my machine today, and I've

the meantime?

Hi all! I just updated my Vista, home made, PC from an Athlon 64 3500+
single core chip to an Athlon 64 3800 X2 to take advantage of multi-
processing in Vista. Here is the problem. When I ran the benchmarks,
Vista is performing terribly. I went from about 12,500 to about 7,500

Is there a scenario where a new Vista PC delivered to your door would NOT try
to do the Genuine Advantage phone home?  Could vendors do that before
shipping, without setting up user accounts?
