>Well, I am trying to keep a smile on my face while using Vista. There are hardware and software issues - things that will not run. Little things like Visual Studio 2002 and 2003, SQL Server 2000, and a few dozen other things on my XP Professional machine.

>Visual Studio 2005 has a "Compatibility Issue", SQL Server 2005 gave me fits but I have them working now.

>I could do a double boot with Vista and XP Professional on my new computer but the chip set (Compaq) will not work with XP.

>I am creating a list of each day I work on my new Vista computer and the problems I am having. There are lots of people that are having problems but because my computer was made for Vista, it does not crash and burn like other people complain of.

>I have professional Audio Cards that I use to record my music, and they feed racks of audio equipment. The audio cards do not work with Vista - no drivers. So I am stuck as my big XP machine went south and they cannot get a motherboard for the 3 year old computer. There are no Audio Cards of the quility I need available at this time. Be patient Thomas, be patient!
