Hi everyone.  I had to reformat my new Windows Vista computer today because it apparently got a virus and the HP customer support representative was not able to help me. It kept freezing up on startup. So I am back and I have a new anti-virus on my computer and a new firewall. Hopefully it'll keep any and all viruses off of my computer. Please pray that I don't have any more serious computer trouble. |

It's best to prevent spyware and virus infections. Get a good anti-virus and Spyware Blaster and you'll prevent such infections. |

Vista sucks. I just had new computer replaced that was only 3 months old. It kept freezing up and one day, it stopped powering on altogether. This computer here is only a few days old and I noticed it froze once already. If this computer quits working, some body's heads' gonna roll because you don't know the trouble I went through getting them to replace my other computer. |

Good luck! |

Do you have sufficient memory in it? |

Personally, I like Vista. But that is just me. Different operating systems for different people I suppose.  | |
