>That doesnt sound good. But I dont see where he notes the hardware specs for the machine he had Vista installed on, and if it was a clean install to begin with.

By now the "clean install" bugaboo should be longggg passe.

If it actually takes a "clean install" to get VISTA performing optimally then we are no further head than we were at Win95.

Is this a case where Microsoft still falls down or is it more a case that the myth of "clean install" persists where it needn't????

The first thing I did wonder about was the system specs though.

cheers
