Im so happy i think im falling in love with Vista! First of all S.T.A.L.K.E.R crashes every 2 minutes, LOTRO just doesn't want to work at all and now Oblivion crashes as well

Screw you Bill Gates, screw you!!

I find it more stable than XP with my games. But, i havent tried stalker yet . . .

Rob43 · 30 Apr 2007 at 15:57

No problems with oblivion & vista for me :confused:

MNuTz · 30 Apr 2007 at 15:58

its not the os or the games, its your drivers!

killer_uk · 30 Apr 2007 at 15:58

Yup, my oblivion runs fine. Blame nVidia for the drivers.

Sorry, I meant the OPs sig is too big, 4 lines max.

Are you using the latest Nvidia drivers ?

It's not Vista's fault, already been said it's the lazy arses @ Nvidia who just can't for the life of them produce some fast, stable and on time drivers. It will get better. Oh and it's only been out a few months, it's only a baby.

I like Vista a lot more than XP. It just looks and feels better. Stalker did crash for me a lot but i found a way to fix it.

Just do a search for "stalker crash" and you should find a solution.

I finally gave up on Vista at the weekend and wiped it from my system. I basically found it compeltely unsuitable for gaming. Poor sound, crashing games every 5 mins, rubbish graphics drivers and even when the games did work they ran slower than in XP. I got sick of hunting around trying all sorts of official, beta and hacked drivers for things.

Might stick it back on whenever they release a service pack and some decent drivers for things. It's rapidly becoming the new ME as far as I'm concerned :mad:

There is not much for me to add, so I will just post a few sarcastic replys.

Vista has never BSOD for me in RTM and I haven't had had any major issues, either I am the luckiest person on the forum or I am super intelligent, like, able to Google or upgrade my drivers intelligent.

Also I keep forgetting Microsoft own and run every games developer and hardware manufacturer. I want to see Bill Gates personally recode STALKER and my drivers to run better, it was clearly due to his lack of foresight that they have issues with the new version of Windows.

People that compare it to ME. Seriously, go use Windows ME for a month.

One of the worst things is when people install Vista, then act all surprised and cry about it when their games run slow. Did you not notice the thousand and one topics complaining about nvidia's drivers, or did you just ignore them on purpose?

Vista works fine for me with games. currently im playing WOW and LOTRO and both have never crashed. come to think of it Vista has never crashed on me for anything. Probably something to do with the fact that I dont ever install any rubbish on it (e.g demos, freeware etc) and i keep it clean (disk cleanup, spyware, defrag etc0

lol as soon as I read the thread name I thought... "Uh oh.. it's going to be a blood-bath... I MUST SEE!"

lol I agree Vista sucks... Can't wait until it gets a least a little fixed... I need it for Crysis

Must get Vista then!!

Nah, im not bothering with it until i need to. When some decent DX10 games start rolling out i will start to consider it. XP is fine for me at the mo

MNuTz · 30 Apr 2007 at 19:11

Why do people keep saying "Vista sucks", "vista works fine" etc??

Its fairly well established now that the problem with gaming on Vista is a driver problem. Which has nothing to do with Vista.

Dumbass 10 year olds who call themselves after Matrix characters etc. do not understand this, hence the mount of "I hate vista threads"

LOTRO works fine.

If you experience the loop of the launcher restarting then you need to disable User Account Control. This is a fault in the launcher rather than the operating system.

hahahaha
99% of crashes are caused by bad drivers iirc.
also calling yourself after a matrix char or something like ".one." = LOSE AT THE INTERNETS!
