From LINQ to SilverLight – Watch videos and hear about all the cool technologies coming and the people behind them. http://channel9.msdn.com/Forums en Sat, 25 May 2013 09:10:12 GMT Sat, 25 May 2013 09:10:12 GMT Rev9 9 -9 -1 For me Vista has been a bit of a disappointment, I have had too many hardware problems with Vista, mainly with graphics drivers. In previous threads on Channel 9 others expressed the same frustrations.

So, what is the best thing Microsoft can do to restore the faith in Vista? Is SP1 enough or should they rebrand Vista as Vista SE? Should they just hurry up and release Windows Seven?

By not letting their crapware drivers get WHQL certified, for instance.

Make things solid before shipping, and that includes properly tested drivers from 3rd parties.  Microsoft has a certain amount of muscle it can use to ensure that the likes of NVidia toe the line.

That's not a Vista issue per-se. It really isn't. But it's a Microsoft issue and they need to push harder for better and updated drivers.
