Is there any way I can get my HEK+ to not freeze up when I right click something?
Because every time I choose file or open, or right click something, my HEK+ freezes and a bunch of little windows pop up, and it closes. Any ideas? |

Vista, You Phail.
I have XP, Its faster than Vista. And my programs work. The only Vistaish thing that ive ever liked was the alt-tab, switching windows and the looks |

Vista works perfectly fine for me no troubles with anything halo related.
XP 'can' be faster on a newer machine because obviously theres less going on in the background that Vista. If you have a decent PC and not some relic then vista runs perfectly well. If you have vista on a crappy pc then just disable some of the visual elements and you can run it fine. |

lol, you sure about that super? Vista does suck. My brother has it, I installed it on my pc, Multi os's on boot up. But anyway Crashes like crap. Has no support for many programs and has little compatibility. Not to mention it said my vista was a fake. lol? Its gay. We have alt-tab too... But just a different interface.

Vista doesn't run Need for Speed 3, therefore it sucks and blows. Hell, it doesn't seem to run a lot of older (and more awesome) games.

The main things that make me want to get vista... Halo 2 and the way it looks. Otherwise, I'm happy with Ol' Faithful XP.

The only Vistaish thing that ive ever liked was the alt-tab, switching windows and the looks umm, considering I had vista for 2 years. On my new pc built to play crysis. Halo CE Framerate was like. 8 fps. on XP with Vista Visuals it runs at 15 - 30 fps |

These forums pay attention to the older members rather than the newer members. And, perhaps selentic made a better point than you did? |
