Both automatically connect to my husbands XP system and transfer perfectly. I dislike Bill Gates and the way he is trying to control everyone's computers as much as I dislike how our current government officials are trying to control our lives.

I tried to install it last night it just stopped to proceed furtur after an hour. I turned the computer off and then it wont restart. Right it has been trying to repair itself since past 12 hours. I had my presentation due today morning which I had to stay up and redo. Before installing the service pack, it did not give any warnings or instructions or anything. By far it is worst thing that could have ever happened. Now I am just hoping that my data is not deleted completely.

Now I've got XP where I like it and tried vista on a seperate PC. In my opinion it was DOA. Now Windows 7 looks like a repackaged vista clone. Too be fair I haven't seen it but have read enough by those who have. I think if microsoft keeps up I'm goin to linux!

Does anyone know if Microsoft is going to fix this stuff? Also, I agree with Steve on April 8, 2007 about discover card. If you have one, cut it up and throw it out. I started to order something from an infomercial and when they tried to bait and switch me to triple the order, I cancelled the order right there. I tried to call the "customer service" number and you can never get through. Several weeks later, they sent the stuff anyway and charged me $108 for a $20 original order! I sent it back, but they wouldn't credit me on discover card. I have sent the problem to the Attorney General of the state and it's still in dispute. discover is still charging me monthly $19 late fees and finance charges when consumer laws state they can't do that on a disputed charge. The idiots at discover said, "well you must have ordered something because they have your account info," they won't listen to me that this was a fraudulent charge and just keep charging. Other credit card companies obey consumer laws! Thanks for listening.

Why in the F%ck do you tards preload Windows Movie Maker when it is the least stable way of preparing a video? My moments, which im certain mean shit to you, end up scrambled and constantly booted. I lost footage of my uncle who died last week,and now I have to explain this to my family in the midst of thier grief. YOUR program stole his image from us....I want an explanation as to why a preloaded program does this. My uncle and his image is forever lost. Why? Not a vista complaint.
