Hi, thanks for the input. I'm still hovering around 7.22 and must admit at times this OS drives me nuts. I really, really hope that with the advent of SP1 (which apparently has a rewritten kernal) that things improve. I'm really trying to like Vista and have defended it on more than one occasion but I'm starting to think that Vista has some very deep seated flaws. What were these guys doing for 6yrs? As far as I can make out, it was a competition to see who could create the most frustrating bug in an OS...
For now I'm going to stick with it and hope and pray things improve (Microsoft themselves said don't just buy Vista thinking the SP1 update will be a vast improvement, stick with it and Vista will slowly improve). Time will tell if this OS has any sort of a future...
