Ok... so I got a couple of new PC's through. I'd allocated one day to install them and sort them. A whole day. No probs! I used to build PC's for a living ... what could be easier!!!!????
Holy....
shitting....
Hell.....
Ok... spec wise, both the new PC's we have are pretty shit hot ... fast as fuck, lots of space, 2GB main memory for now ... we can add up to 6GB more... for now, 2 is fine. I got a nice 22" Widescreen ... sure, it's the least quality part of the system, but it still looks awesome....
Ok ...
then ... the nightmare.
Vista.
Oh how I love it ... and loathe it. Ok... so yeah, it's actually VERY fast on this new system. I am happy with it performance wise ... but I have had a nightmare. This new system ... a system I was confident I could build and install within a few hours ... on XP I could have done it all in 3 or 4 hours.... this system is causing me headaches ... first, sharing drives, then trying to delete some old data ... asking me to do everything before I did it ... then not letting me because ... even tho I am an admin on the system, obviously I don't have admin rights .... installing Photoshop and it not working ... on one ... but fine on the other...
I'm not going to list all the problems ... but crapping hell, it's been a ride. A nasty... slow... difficult ride.
I did wanna upgrade I must admit ... but I'll be honest ... and, this is for anyone who wanted to get in touch ... most of my clients know that my system was unstable and I had to get a new one... well, the time came and my PC died. Properly. I didn't expect it entirely... but it did.
Anyways ... there you go.
