Well,
I'm irratated. Why you ask? Well....Vista. I bought Vista Ultimate x64 about a month ago. Now, for the first 2 weeks or so it has been reasonably acceptable. Ok, the Nvidia drivers for my 8800 hadn't been released, but I could do most of what I wanted from the OS. I enjoyed the new toys to play with and generally my experiences with the it. Now it's gone all wrong, horribly wrong...
I can no longer watch movies.....or any video for that matter! For no apparent reason, my massive collection of films on my 400GB hard drive do not work. It looks to be a codec issue - The sound plays and the picture displays a blank screen. However - I have reinstalled VLC - No luck. I have also reinstalled ffdshow. This also fails. Interestingly this may or may not be related to the installation of the new Nvidia 100.65 drivers.
Is this really time for me to turn back to XP SP2?!
