SSD + Vista

[alphaomega16]

I know windows 7 has trim which was made for ssd's in mind but would it be ok to install vista onto an SSD.

I REALLY hate windows 7 and would love to get vista back.

Its a 256GB Samsung 830.

why would you abuse such a drive with vista?

should work fine,but youll lose trim support

How can you hate Windows 7?

How can he like Vista is the more puzzling question.

Vista is the better of 2 evils, the thing that ****es me off the most in windows 7 is this.

Folders auto-scroll and its REALLY annoying and I often moving stuff or opening the wrong thing.

What ****es me off the most though is it wont retain single window size for separate folders its one size fits all and its really REALLY annoying.

surely you can turn that off in folder settings somwhere?

Been in there for at least an hour going through every option.

Windows 8 will be great on a tablet though, Surface RT will be good. But back on topic, I think that if someone hates Windows 7, they might actually like Windows 8.

Tried that, on each tab.

Will be fine, and every once in a while you can manually open Magician software and run the Performance Optimization feature.
