More Vista Problems

http://live.pirillo.com/ – Windows Vista is still giving Chris problems. This time it may be related to nVidia’s on-board LAN adapter and its drivers.

Has anyone else noticed that almost all of chris’s Vista problems have stemmed from nVidia in one way or another?

I’ve found another annoying problem and others may have found it as well. Vista has a utility (as did XP) for linking with an atomic clock to keep your computer clock adjusted to the right time. All well and good, except that it doesn’t work if you happen to use a firewall….

Come on – who is silly enought NOT to use a firewall? Would have been nice if the MS Gurus had solved this as well before sending out the finished product. Will they ever learn to make it simple?

I had this same problem. Try booting in safe mode with networking. Then do a windows update.
