A few months ago, Microsoft released two beta hotfixes, KB938194 and KB938979, otherwise known as the ‘Vista Compatibility and Reliability Pack’ and ‘Vista Performance and Reliability Pack’ respectively. Each hotfix addressed a variety of issues, but we’ve included the most important here.
938194 Vista Compatibility and Reliability Pack
• Improves the performance in calculating the ‘estimated time remaining’ when copying/moving large files. Improves the performance when copying or moving entire directories containing large amounts of data or files.
• Improves the performance of Vista’s Memory Manager in specific customer scenarios and prevents some issues which may lead to memory corruption.
938979 Vista Performance and Reliability Pack
• Improved reliability and compatibility of Vista when used with newer graphics cards in several specific scenarios and configurations.
• Increased compatibility with many video drivers.
• Improved visual appearance of games with high intensity graphics.
A note to earlier users – there was an incompatibility with vLite and these hotfixes that prevented users from creating or renaming new folders, if they were applied to a ‘vLited’ install. As of vLite 1.1 beta, this issue
is resolved.

stuff vista i don't want anything with it to come 20 meter's near my computer. "hey i brought my laptop over so we can play COD4 on lan-- 5 mins later -- WTH i mean WTH YOUS SMASH MY LAPTOP CAUSE IT HAS VISTA." explanation the laptop happily jumped off a cliff after being bombarded by all the useless bells and whistles of vista. RIP T7500 2.2Ghz "was killed when a bus with a driver called VISTA ran over him"
and i don't have anything bad against wibdos cause i think XP is awesome and that VISTA is shit only because it is.
vista does't offer "so much" no it just looks all shiny and if gamers resist WINDOWS will have to bring out a copy of DX10/10.1/11 for XP (IE DX9.0l)

A short and snappy article that delivers the goods. Another fine tute, Logan. I need to get some vLite'd love on to my PC, but I'm spending way too much time playing Warhammer these days.
emccat: DX 9.0L is the DX9 library set for Vista, NOT DX10 for XP. Get your facts straight, kid.
Learn to construct legible sentences while you're at it. In one post you've displayed two things you fail at. Good work.

I agree with everything you said ff8-guy.
I haven't touched vista yet mainly because there hasn't been much in the way of creating my own boot disk, and now there is, so gg MS.
