Finally!

I've finally finished installing Visual Studio 2005, service pack 1, and the Vista update for service pack 1. Hopefully this means my system will be stable now.
I'm not counting on it though.
Memory diagnostics didn't find any problems. Disk diagnostics didn't find any problems.
I still don't trust the system to reboot.
I'll give it a couple of days.
When I launch Visual Studio, it recommends running it as an administrator. When I try to do that through the start menu... well... It still tells me I should run it as an administrator.
I'm not too sure about that.
Microsoft has sure found a way to make computing less convenient.
There doesn't seem to be a whole lot of "customer love" in that.

I can't believe it. Now the stupid system doesn't recognize the DVD drive.
Worse yet, now it doesn't even get past the first bar of the startup progress indicator before it immediately reboots.
I'm running system repair on it now. At least it recognizes the DVD drive when it boots from it.
And Microsoft calls this their most reliable and secure operating system yet?
If I wasn't so angry right now I'd laugh. |
