*Cliff Notes - Vista sucks, don't buy a computer with Vista, insist on XP*
So I get a new quad core box that comes with Vista, no option to get XP with it.
I uninstall the Norton shit, because it's annoying, keeps popping up shit that "needs my attention"
I turn around to my main computer and all of a sudden I hear the hard drive spinning on the Vista box....it's rebooting....but now it won't boot up. WTF?
It didn't come with an OS disk or a recovery disk, it has a separate partition on the main drive with the recovery stuff.
I figure since I have the recovery stuff there and I've lost my data anyways, I'll install XP on this machine cause that'll be better all the way around.
Well XP doesn't have a driver for the ethernet and some PCI shit...so I can't connect to the internet. There are no XP drivers online either, so I'm fucked, I have to go back to Vista.
But now I can't access the partition with the Vista info. XP can't read that part of the drive....I boot up with a CD and delete the XP partition, and now I can't get the machine to boot up at all.
So I had to pay $30 for overnight shipping on a recovery CD from HP, and wait until tomorrow for it to get here. Not to mention I've lost several days worth of video encoding work.
Here's a big to microshit
