Vista - Victims

a contest from a Peter 's idea

1 -The jury winner is the person who has the most problems with Vista


2 - The popular winner is the person who repairs most of them

( freely adpted from Peter )

...................

first questions :

Quote :

- Why can't my html editor write to apache's httdocs folder ?
- Why does not run ?

... why will MySQL probably not run ?

I will win the jury´s trophy

Apache is running, HTML kit writes to httdocs ... * still does not run, and MySQL will be next (to not run).

Vista is behaving somehow like an inquisitor ... even if running as admin it does not allow a few things ...

First aid is provided by just disabling one of Vista's new features

The UAC (or User Access Control) should be renamed as PIA (pain in the ass) or PIA-1, because there are more to come, that's sure.

[EDIT]

well, if you want to be a real "admin" of your Vista-Box, I´ve found that trick :

Open the command line prompt with admin rights (right click ... open as admin) and type :

net user administrator /active:yes

Reboot, login as administrator, feel like a real admin.

I am a Vista victim, member #3 of VIVA
( Vista Victims Anonymous )

My mouse is always sticky
...I mean... on pages.

In some VRML 3d, it even makes the avatars follow it until I click it to stop.

It's so annoying, I use my desktop for 3d.

Please Mr. Techno-Pig , tell me how to make this stop!

hummm

Played with Vista in it's early release and told MS exactly what I thought of it (Probably why I don't get many Beta test invitations now, lol). Didn't like or see the use in it then, don't now. My sons like it so maybe it's because I am an old fossil ) Will stay with XP for now.
