If they did not you are wasting your time looking elsewhere.

I suggest you ROLL this one right back to the store where you bought it and make a trade, I'm sure they will ROLL one right out for you with XP on it. If you don't like a Caddy go back to a Model A.

Seems a more fitting description. :) [Reply or follow-up to this message] re: Roll Back To XP PRO Sunday, October 18, 2009 at 1:59 pm Posted by Adam Bradley (8787 messages posted) After trimming all the security and easy of use junk used as selling points vista is not bad really, kind of like XP with a few settings moved around most of the time. It still has it's issues but it is not the second coming of windows ME by any means.

Never even had that many crashes on My ME Computer in about 7 or 8 years of use in the Office. After about a month with Vista I couldn't take it any more.:) [Reply or follow-up to this message] re: Roll Back To XP PRO Monday, October 19, 2009 at 3:18 pm Posted by Adam Bradley (8787 messages posted) Guess I got lucky then by getting a good copy, even ME had some a few. One of my classmates had a copy of ME that worked perfectly, pirated interestingly enough.

The only reason I retired it was the Printer died over the summer, and none of the Cheap Printers at the Office supply store Worked with old 9X systems. So I moved to a XP Backup Computer that I had for the eventual move. The ME Computer is still plugged in, though without a Monitor, just in case I find some customer information is missing, and needs to be retrieved from the Drive.:) [Reply or follow-up to this message] Tip: Use one of the [Reply or follow-up to this message] links above to add a message to this thread Search this forum Start a new thread on a different subject Report abuse of the forum Return to the Windows Vista Discussion Forum
