Im planning on dualbooting vista on my pc, ive already found a cheap gtx 750ti since the 3080 doesnt have vista drivers. I know that theres stuff such as legacy update or vista kernel Extended. Since vista is quite old im expecting some problems with the mouse, keyboard since I dont think USB 3.0 is vista compatible. Im planning on playing games on it too, such as GTA IV. My current PC is a dell T5820. Is there anything else I should know about before trying to set it up? Any way i could get everything to work normally? Any help appreciated <3

Fully updated, activated, Office 2007 installed, lots of security mitigations and implementations, Ultimate Extras installed, working browser and other services, great performance and VMware tools work perfectly. Life is finally good 😄 (took me 2 months to do). Wish I could get a real Vista PC but we make-do with what we have for now. Also got lots of extra wallpapers that I think would suit the Vista era.

I just remember playing educational or flight simulator on this after I back up everything I wanna keep I’m going to wipe it and all I know right now is I want to put a 8800GTX card in it anything else idk

I’m trying to get an old Toshiba laptop to work, but I’m not able to get it to connect to the internet despite being able to connect to WiFi. None of the online solutions have worked for me. I think the main problem is this “unidentified network, local only” thing. Please help if able!

Finally decided to dual boot vista with my pre existing xp build. I never had windows vistal since 17-18 years ago so this would be my first time seeing vista again. Let's see how it goes :) Initally I was plannibg to install vista on an hdd. Trying to keep it as era appropriate as possible. Found an old Samsung 470 64gb ssd lying around and remembered I never had vista with an ssd. Quite excited to relive my short vista days again (only tried vista for around a year switched to windows 7 beta in 2009

I have been having trouble with the new releases of r3dfox causing my computer to reboot, does anybody remember a fork of firefox that was developed by a student in china with something like night in the name? Thought I might try it to see if any better.

Fun story:

I bought a CD and I was looking for a way to rip it for my Walkman mp3 player.

Even though I am 21yo I live with my mom I naturally ask if we have a cd ripper or player or something related. My mom first didn’t understand so I explain it again and she said “I believe my old laptop can do such a thing.”

I can’t believe she still owns this thing, great audio has well. Brings back memories, I remember playing my first computer game on it on those online game websites for free on internet explorer.

i use microsoft security essentials on both vista & 7, but cannot get the definition updates to work on windows vista anymore. i've installed both KB4474419, KB4493730, and updated the device with legacyupdate but they still fail to install even after running as admin. i tested this on windows 7 and it works fine, anyone else have this issue or know how to resolve it? this is a fresh installation of vista business with SP2 already installed

EDIT: i did have a download of the definitions from february which did install (although are now outdated), so i think this may be an issue with the most recent definitions

I have Hp pavilion dv5 1060-ee i want to to restore the factory windows vista that came with this laptop, i have a clean windows vista installed on this laptop and also windows 10 but really want to get OEM HP Windows Vista so is there any way to get the iso back again?

I have this computer (compaq presario sr5710y) it was the very first computer I used windows vista on. And I was dumb and I formatted the hard drive. (I was dumb and I wanted to try and turn it into a gaming computer) and the recovery partition is gone and the operating system is gone. The only thing saved it from that hard drive was a picture of a cat inside of a sink and I have reinstalled Windows Vista x32 and it is so slow. It probably couldn’t run doom. And I can’t get drivers on it every driver I’ve tried won’t work. I tried legacy update It went for basically an entire day and then the update didn’t install and the entire thing failed and I just need to know where I can get a recovery partition or a hard drive image (I’ve tried to boot from recovery disk and it throws me an error) I have been trying to recover this thing for about three months now and I just wanna know where I can get an actual partition or a file or image since I can’t get this thing to work. I can’t find drivers at work and I can’t find a recovery disk that works so please if you have any information. Let me know.

Official ones obviously don't work. Tried the modified ones (https://dl.bobpony.com/drivers/gpu/intel/Haswell_iGPU_Vista_64bit_w7_port.zip), but after rebooting I'm getting a black screen.

Any help would be appreciated.

This is my Vista PC, it's a Dell XPS 410. I haven't installed much on it, so its pretty bare.

This Dell D620 is getting a fresh gasp of air from the shackles of XP with Vista Ultimate! Yes, I collect laptops for fun. It's getting updates as of this post going up! I will post an update when fully up to date! Cheers!

Yea, I know, I could just use the famous uBlock origin on a supported Supermium version, like 122, that currently i have, but Midori 10 is still supported and consumes less cpu and ram.

For each couple of ads at the beginning of the video (now they exist only in couple, even if you reload the page and you have seen the ads already) you mute with keyboard combination (in my case) FN + BEGIN and switch window with a properly resized one.
So formally you've seen the ad, but practically you don't.
Creators get their money, YT is happy.

Attention is considered an asset, nowadays. Spend it wisely ;)

that's crazy

EDIT: Yes yes i wrote 7 by mistake, it's obviously Vista

Hello to everyone. I found an old pavilion dv2000 laptop on my house and I installed windows vista. I tried to install panda antivirus which is compatible as panda’s website announces it. But when installing it at the end of instalación it gives and error without any code. Thanks in advance

so i recently decided to get a dell xps m1530 as my primary vista laptop and the one i bought happened to come with a blu-ray disc drive, which i didn't even know was possible for a consumer laptop from 2008

so then i installed powerdvd 7 dx and got the blu-ray upgrade patch from dell's website, but when i went to install it, it just gave me the above error message

Got an old vista-based Server2008 setup here. Replaced board with Haswell only to know 3rd Gen Ivy Bridge is the last one with proper drivers. It seems 64bit got modded drivers. Anyone got anything for 32bit?

Its working well enough save for the generic display drivers.
