| Installed vista 64 sp1 tonight. So far so good! Quick responses but still unused in my hands sort to speak. Hats off to Squirrel for all the help!. Will report later on my general feelings after getting used to it. |

| Spliff, did you have to do the registry hack, or did you install SP1 from a torrent? |

Correction - later today I (me) am going to try a long and convoluted process of installing osx86 on Spliff's Dell.
Can't be simple can it. requires an install of Tiger, followed by an upgrade with various hacks of and patches to get Leopard on. Every other PC i've tried it on has been ok but fucking Spliff's Dell is a cnuts to do it on. |

Actually, not sure if it's sp1  The torrent was the Feb one and said sp1, and no complaints on the torrent messages but, doesn't show on the system info. |

He has got some strange error that occurs in Dell's with the security sector. It puts the installation into a error loop.
Already read up on ways around it. Sadly the longest process is the most reliable. |
