What Operating system do you have?

Postby RYANMILLER36 » Sat Jan 10, 2009 1:14 pm

I have Windows Vista home premium on all three of my computers. I didn't upgrade I bought all three computers in 2008 (I'm pretty sure) so it came with it.
What do you guys have?

Ah. I like Vista so much better. I used XP for a long time then my computer stopped working because it was on a network with a Vista Laptop and A Vista HP. Atleast, thats what we thought because it was no longer connecting to the internet after We setup our Home network.
IMO, XP is plain and boring. I hate having to use it at school.

Well b4 we had it like ethernet cabled and then we took it off and it just stopped working. It was a pretty old computer so maybe there wasnt even a wireless card in there or maybe it just like died as soon as we did it.

There is stil a chance you can recover your files, but you need to slave the drive to another pc, or make it a thumb drive which is prolly best.

Give me a copy stick, I really want to see it.

Currently XP MCE

Honestly I've grown tired of Windows... Would run linux but it's a pain to run from my experience with Ubuntu and Mac is basically proprietary so you have to buy their expensive machines....

You can install some version of Linux.
Pretty sure there's an option somewhere that says install other OS

You can install Yellow Dog linux on the ps3. I've seen xp running in an emulator within yellow dog, but it is so, so, so slow it's purely a proof-of-concept kind of thing. TB was gonna send me a cd of Yellow Dog, but it go returned..but you can download it and burn it to a dvd. Only problem is that it's somewhere around 5 or 6 gigabytes... :/

I'm not gonna send it to you..but you can download it here:
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/window ... nload.aspx
download is for anyone, as long as you can run it. Make sure to download the 32-bit one if you have a 32-bit processor...or the 64-bit one if you have a 64-bit processor.. Just keep in mind that this beta expires in August, so if you're gonna make this your main OS (as opposed to a dual boot) that you're ready to go back to Vista.
Enjoy! :spn: :spn:

Personally, it doesn't boot ever since it crashed when I opened IE for the first time..
