i'm making a huge mistake
installing vista on the new comp
my old xp discs just wouldn't work. Some files just couldn't be read even the disc is newly burnt. WTF
at least I have 2 gig of ram, not too worried about lag. Or should i?

I have seen systems with 4gigs lagging with Vista.
Do yourself a favor and use XP...you will thank yourself later for it.
