Sometimes when I load up my PC with vista I get a message saying my sidebar is not working and the sidebar goes missing. Anyone had those problems?

Oh didn't realise they were out! Best take a look. Most my 3d games i.e counter-strike source and even pro evo 6 wouldn't work to its full before! I blamed the gfx as there were no official drivers...[FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]"The internet is a great way to get on the net."

They dont seem compatible with any cards pre 8800 for some reason!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And people seem to believe they fix nothing and its still all "crap"
Even worse is this:
"
Well I had the weirdest thing happen today. I am running a 6800GT card. With the standard Windows Vista nVidia drivers, I got video subscore of 4.5. When I installed the official nVidia drivers from early FFeb, I retained the score, however after installing these latest drivers this morning, my subscore has dropped to 3.8

My sidebar seems to rearrange the order of gadgets on every reboot!
This will all be part of the learning process, finding the bugs. There will be thousands!!0 -
Hi,
I think it is wonderful of all these people doing volume testing free for that nice Mr.Gates. System testers normally charge quite a lot.

haha very true LittleJo!!!!
The current RTM is like a beta and SP1 will be the proper bug free one! We're just all the guniea pigs [FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]"The internet is a great way to get on the net."
