LOL .... 1.8 CELERON ... *1gb ddr2* ... vista ... what did u expect dude ? Celeron can't run Counter-Strike 1.6 on windows *98* with 100 fps ... Stop commenting please
YOU stop posting. I DID play CS there with 40+ FPS on maximum settings. (XP, though, lol)
Celeron CPU's are targeted for the low-end consumer market. Plus being a mobile CPU, it is significantly slower than it's desktop counter part. Despite being pre-installed, that laptop was NOT ready for Vista even though the GHz numbers passes the minimum requirements (We all know that 3.0GHz does not necessarily mean its faster than a 1.6GHz CPU right?). I bet you bought it a few months after Vista launched when all the OEM's were pushing the newest OS on all their devices because people love shiny new things. Just another reason why people hated Vista, being forced onto crap hardware just because it was new and would sell better than XP.
You bet is right, except one thing: I haven't bought it, my parents did. They don't know anything about computers and they told me to buzz off when I told the store that I don't want Vista there. My dad was like: "you don't know anything, in future everything will be written for Vista..." LOL! Shows what he knew. Of course that machine wasn't powerful enough for Vista, BUT Win7 was FASTER there, almost as fast as XP, in fact, so I don't see why I should use an OS that is inferior to 7 and is slower. And please stop explaining about CPUs, I'm messing with PCs for 8+ years and I'd never choose a Celeron laptop... it was forced upon me
😀
Anyway, I'm sure that Vista was good when tweaked right, especially for high-end PCs, but only until Win7 rolled out. Now Vista is dead. Except for those people who had it before and don't need an upgrade; but nobody will buy it new if they know what's good for them.
And another thing: original (no service packs) Win7 doesn't have any problems with it. Vista, on the other hand? Quite a few. And they're NOT related to slow hardware. Just admit it, MS was diabolically cunning and released a beta of Windows 7 as a separate OS, so by the time 7 was out, it was fully supplied with drivers (most of Vista and 7 drivers are interchangeable), users who were familiar with the new interface (although it wasn't THAT different from XP) and a lot of feedback on what to improve. Though, it spoiled their reputation quite a bit - most of the people I've met think that Win7 is same as Vista if not worse, thanks to the same GUI. U MAD BRO?
