    Never buy an OS right when it comes out. It's guaranteed to be full of bugs. Like xelink said, repair option or just install it again.

    Dont post off topic please.

    I suggest doing an FDISK command (with a bootable floppy or disk, get it from a friend off the net), then telling me your system specs. Acctually, other way around, specs, then FDISK. Expect ALL data to be erased with the FDISK, on a single partition. THEN, re-installing vista. If you're on an AMD machine, turn 'Cool and Quiet' off.

    Yeah, I got that too. I think its because its our graphics that cannot support DirectX9.

    yes i heard about this vista isnt CONFIRMED to run certain programs yet and stuff so i guess you should just wait until a pc comes out with VISTAS installed already. ;)
