Hi Johnny
----------------------------------------As a long time system tester I have found that generally software engineers like nothing better than to fix 2 faults and create one new one. As least that's a step in the right direction  Roll on Vista   |

Microsoft do have a whole pile of regression tests that have to run on every patch and patch combination. Chances are, it's HP's fault.
In the words of the old song: 100 little bugs in the code, 100 bugs in the code, fix one bug, compile it again, 101 little bugs in the code...! |

LOL
----------------------------------------The MS testers are grumping on the forums that their regressions tests are not what they used to be with Vista after the latest slip to post Christmas. That said there's not enough hours in the day to test every combo that could live inside a PC. Maybe those sealed box Apples are onto a thing  Touch wood this Nforce2 board has been running sweet with it's current collection of components for what in PC Land is a very long time. I got my orignal which is still running upstairs December 2002. I'm waiting for the arrival of Socket AM2 and nForce5 to team with Vista. XP (now) rocks (other OS's are available) Dave |
