Can't understand people actually paying hard earned cache for the gigantic crap sandwich that Vista actually is, even with SP1 RC1 installed it's so slow it's faster to actually copy the files to 1 billion floppies and run in an old fashion snikernet Well, make the move to Linux or migrate back to XP, have been trying vista since beta 2 since I’m a developer developing some stuff for windows based platforms, at home I run Linux or XP as a fall back for specific tasks.

The equipment I work with is donated by individuals and local businesses. In my environment, nearly all BSOD issues are traced to bad memory. Don’t forget bad hardware, Steve.

No, no hotfix fixes it, and No, it's not a fault with network drivers. It's simply a fault with Vista.
