p.s. vista threads should be an offense now on the forums as nobody really cares what OS you play on, it's a load of hullabaloo.

Yeah, I'm just tired of people bashing on Vista, people are really stupid sometimes.

but when she first got her laptop, it didnt work. i guess it was because she was using vista. so she had to refund her laptop and got it with XP. but then she replaced it with vista. i dunno y she replaced it to the crappy vista, but i could care less about her laptop.

It is not a peice of s*** system like you always put it and many are starting to see Vista not that bad. Yes not the best or better then XP, but it is able to be work with and used. So yeah.

both windows have there ups and downs. XP even has bod things about it. Vista obviously has downs, but does have some good things. but no matter wat u say plan, XP i think is still better. now hopefully windows 7 is better than both XP and vista.

Vista is a decent operating system, I personally love it. But like all operating systems, people have their preferences.

It is a shame however to note that some people take it a bit extreme as to put the other ones down.

Example:
Windows Vista vs XP vs Mac vs Linux
Chrome vs FF vs IE vs other
PS3 vs 360 vs Wii

Suck it up, and just play with what you got, because in the end you become a better player, as noted by Superfreak04.

I have Vista on my computer, and I like it. Right now I'm no my brother's computer and he has XP and it freezes a lot and takes forever to do anything. Based on this, my reference is Vista.

i always had bad PA
vista didn't make it any better nor worse O:

This will never happen since people just dont understand that it is not that bad. Use the right set up on Vista and it will run just fine.

Pretty much use FF cuz IE just blows with Vista, and on mine, dont use the FFR Beta, I lag a whole lot, but it could just be me. So use the reg. or ffranotherway. Other than that, FF just makes it perfect. I can play with AIM, SM, and other programs up and no lag at all. So yeah. XD

Sweet deal, I do that already. xD

FFR on Vista does not work. I have a quad computer with Vista thats worse than a single cpu desktop with XP. And the Vista computer was just bought a few months ago, and we had the XP computer now for like 3+ years I am sure. My dual core laptop with XP runs much better as well. Actually it runs the best.
Dual core laptop with XP FTW!

Haha, all my scores came from Vista, I think it works pretty well to me. XD

**tofurox** · 01-7-2009, 10:18 PM

Once you try my laptop you'll never want to switch back.
External keyboard and everything!

**Godel** · 01-8-2009, 06:37 PM

I downgraded my flash from flash player 10 to 8 and it feels exactly like XP again.

woot
9 and 10 were both lagging like pregnant sloths though. 8 Seems to have done the trick...I didn't really test it much yet but from playing a couple of songs I can see it's at least not lagging...I couldn't tell if it went off sync though.

So i was lagging badly with flash 9 and 10
Comp specs:
Intel Q6600 (2.4 GHz quad)
4 GB DDR2 ram 1066 MHz
1 GB of GDDR

I mean it worked perfectly on XP as well, but still I wish vista would be alittle better XD

PS:
It seems to still be alittle off Sync, just got 25 goods on starlight...well I guess that's better than what I was getting on 9/10

PPS:
Does anyone know anyways to make it perfect? Yes I'm running firefox

**8 Hour Whore** · 01-8-2009, 07:13 PM

Okay, I'll be very honest..
I've played on an XP for my entire FFR career..
Now today I was at school playing on a Vista..
my god so many goods..
But as I continued playing on it my good count kept decreasing..
so I was like..
Wtf?
I come home and play on my XP..
And out came some amazing PA..
I'm not sure if Switching back in forth between the two since it takes a really precise time window for Vista to be a Perfect or what. but I like what I've gained.. Vista isn't so bad for that now.

TC_llama499 · 01-8-2009, 07:19 PM

i am on vista as we speak and its not THAT bad, i mean their are a few flaws in vista (being able to delete the recycle bin) but its not something to bitch about lol FFR wise i cant tell if im just not used to laptop keys or if its vista but i get a lot of goods on every song.

BTW i figured out how to replace the recycle bin the hard way =.=

EDIT: i just played a few games and the goods are gone if you DONT use the beta. so vista+FF+nonbeta=win lol

**Godel** · 01-8-2009, 07:38 PM

TC, what flash version. 8 Doesn't seem to be working too well XD

**8 Hour Whore** · 01-8-2009, 07:39 PM

Lol Who actually uses the Beta?
2.25x and 2.5x suck..
Combo counter gone is for those that know they never miss..
and Accuracy counter gone wtf?
