Default Vista running smooth for you?

I know a couple people are using Vista here on CAD. How is it running for you? I did have a couple bugs at first, but after lots of tweaking a couple re-installs I've got it running pretty stable.

My reliability monitor finally running 10. Care to share you reliability rating? Just curious if people are still having problems?

Mines been running fine for me... Maybe because I don't know everything about vista yet... I'm at 5.50. Although I don't notice anything out of the ordinary...

I didn't even know that there was a Reliability Monitor in Vista. I'll take a look at my home computer when I get in. It seems pretty stable to me, other than being on the slow side.

I expect that when they put out a service pack or two that it will be as stable, or more stable than XP is now. I just hope the speed takes a big increase.

Mine runs great. Never a problem with it. Of course, I have the special pre-release edition. It's called XP. :wink:

I have one application that keeps crashing in Vista, so it brings my Stability number down pretty low. I'm getting a 2.54 rating :lol:

Worst part? It's w3wp.exe, which is part of IIS (Internet Information Server) - I need it for a web page I host at home.

Oh well, it runs fine.

Yeah, The first thing I do is after a format and re-install is get Mozilla Firefox. If you could remove Internet Explorer it would be the first program to go.
