| no ive got a new PC, wanted vista for future games n future stuff etc, n can wait till all the drivers are released to fix stuff, so i thought why not. Im sorry to see XP go & i can see already a few things wrong with vista & am furiously searching for drivers but other than that im quite happy, happier than getting XP now then in a few years having to pay again for Vista. but i cant see why the dudes above are referring me to a download something that is not known to me, not needed by me as it is a brand new system, and totally off topic with no advice as to why i should be downloading this spludge onto my new PC. Is there a problem with that?

| "Yes. Your own ignorance and rudeness. Your attitude stinks quite frankly. Go and Google what the guys suggested before accusing them of being thickies intent on deliberately sabotaging your PC. If you know so much better than anybody else here does, then why come here looking for answers in the first place?" Excuse me but why should i google these referalls when they are totally off topic as ive said before & there is no information why they would be helpfull to me at this stage. so why should i? + if you prefer every1 to google out of here there would be no need for this public forum. in other forums where i do specialise eg. drinking alcholol, slothenleness & unkemped hygene, i would be eager to fuel other peoples minds with information. i asked a simple question, it was answerred by the good people of micro mart forum which i am greatfull of, and i rate as a PC forum, and am humble in my noobness, but download referralls do need to be explained to me or i would expect them to be suspect

You can't reasonably expect to be nannied through every step of everything. Most people's time is valuable and they have better things to do with it, especially when the advice given here is free and nobody gets paid for giving it. You've been given good referrals for software relating to the configuration of your OS. That's basically what you asked for in the original post unless everybody has interpreted it incorrectly, so I fail to see how you can call the suggestions "off-topic".
Just like all other M$ OSes, Vista is horrendously bad at doing its own housekeeping and soon starts to choke on its own faeces. Ccleaner can be a massive help in that area and can speed your machine up dramatically as well as freeing up unnecessarily wasted hard drive space. It can do many of the things automatically in seconds that you could spend hours farting around trying to do manually. It's much safer than playing around with stuff manually to be honest.
In the post relating to TweakVI, the poster provided a live link to the official website that places you within a couple of clicks of an in-depth explanation of exactly what it is and what it does and makes it clear that it's a very powerful configuration tool specifically modelled for Vista, and there are probably tutorials that can just as easily be found on Google for it.
As I said, if you genuinely want to learn something then go and Google the suggestions and decide for yourself whether you want them on your system or not. You can't reasonably expect ever | | | |
