  • Lastest Vista Problem

    Tried to update my Dell Axim X30 to the latest pocket PC available for it.  The installed would not work in vista, saying there was a problem with the USB driver. Went to a XP machine and it worked just fine.  My HP laserjet 1012 also did not have a driver available.  I used the XP driver but that didn’t work, it just crashed the print spooler.  I had to change a few things and magically it started to work.  My advice to XP users wait 6 to 12 months or at least make sure their is driver support for all your hardware, and also make sure your software will run without having to upgrade all of it.

    I’m not upgrading to Vista for quite a while yet. I almost installed it when Microsoft was doing the betas, but I didn’t because I figured it wouldn’t be worth the hassle until all the big problems were fixed and drivers updated by the hardware companies, etc.

    I’ll owe a lot of gratitude to early adopters like you who find all the problems Microsoft & the other companies will have to fix. :-)
