Ok. So I've recently setup vista ultimate 32bit. I have two problems.
#1) My external hard drive supports eSata. On windows XP I could turn my hard drive on after booting and it would detect it and work fine. On vista, I need to go to device manager and select "Scan for hardware changes." After that, it detects it and works fine.
#2) My shutdown time is ridiculous. After I shut down I basically just lock up and sit there for like a minute or two and stare. I'm guessing I have an application that doesn't want to close or something, but its really bothering me.
I'm using:
Gmail Notifier
RoboForm (Password App)
AIM (Newest Version)
ZoneAlarm (Vista Version)
Logitech Set Point (Mouse Settings)
BestCrypt
BOClean
My system:
Opteron 165
DFI Ultra-D Motherboard
2xG.Skill Extreme
2xRaptor 150GB (Raid 0)
eVGA 7950 GT
Its water cooled. It is currently (and has been since installation of vista) running at stock settings. All software installed including vista is legal and legit. Been up and running for only 2 days now.
