I'm having an issue in my windows vista system, I've done just about everything I can think of with the exception of a full reinstall

Problem: First off when I boot Vista the boot process is VERRRYYY! slow, when it finally boots it comes up with an error something like System Event Viewer Service failed to start.
(and this is microsoft for you) "A Service that should never fail, has failed" :) lol

anyways, upon further inspection I found that a couple key services had failed such as DNS wich caused other services to fail, witch caused even more services to fail so pretty much nothing works
and without my trusty event log i can't even see what the the thing is that causing the operating system to spiral out of control

has anyone see this? I really like vista, but I'm lazy and would rather use XP as apposed to reinstalling vista :P

by why me worry?

Don't say we didn't warn you! Read all threads about issues with Vista and maybe you'll realize what a world of misery you have opened up for yourself.

If you want to keep your computer functional you will need to remove VISTA permanently. VISTA will eventually destroy a computer to where it will be a paperweight.
I installed Business VISTA Platforming off of XP and within 15 days the motherboard on my computer was fried. After running the program that said VISTA could run on my computer.

You need to remove vista as soon as possible.
My Mom had vista on her computer for just 10 days, On day one, three of the keys disappeared from the keyboard damaging her left pinky and inducing a strain in her neck that required physiotherapy.

After the fifth day, the power supply exploded severly scarring her face and leaving here with permanent disfiguration.

On the eighth day my brother decided to use the computer. He's dead now, but we will remember him forever.

Finally on the last day the computer booted up and caused an entire village of starving ethiopians to fall into a strange trance, that the doctors there have still been unable to resolve.

YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!!!

PS With windows XP we had none of these problems.
