De-vista-ted

N seriously take my word for it !!! 

Going around vista is itself so much complicated and to top that, it shits up even more when u want to install our beloved XP. With all those silly dim effects during absurd security questions and the dazzling effects which will end up leading u no where. If you want to remove any application, just click REMOVE and wait for 10 min ( with 2.0ghz and 2 gig ram ), you just have to go thru bloody unimaginable amount of pain to get things shared and move your stuff from one comp to other. 

I started transferring drivers onto a flash driver for back up, n initially it showed 15 min which was pretty acceptable for 1.6 gb. but slowly the time counter started increasing. N it reached to nearly 5 hours ( without no reason ) and that was it. I was so frustrated with vista that i decided to erase watever happens. 

But, thats actually not wat i did. :-) . There was some sense left in me to get those drivers and start installing XP. 

But !! as soon as the booted with the XP cd, i got an error that the setup cudnt find a HDD, i was like what the hell ? No wonder Apple's share is rising. neways, i got my way around that hurdle as well after searching on net for a possible solutio

n by changing AHCP to compatible hardrive in BIOS. 

After some homely feeling i got after watching Xp install process, i actually for the first sat back n relaxed for a while ( which xp installation tells you to do ). Xp installation didnt take long and after some hard fought things, i got finally booted into Xp. But uhh, there were actually quite a few barricades on the way. 

Yikessss   Driversss. .!!! 

Which is the most painful thing to do (or to find ) after installing a diff OS on laptop specially. I had some real pain in the ass finding Mac OS X drivers for my dell's hackingtosh, n now this XP is laying here like an alien on a toshiba laptop on a 800x600 resolution.

I still havnt been able to find the some drivers and one major problem now is i can't get  .NET framework to install on it. It seems like with every 1 step , am moving 2 behind. Damn.. !!

Neways, i have taken a break for a while from windows. I cudn't take it nemore of windows in a single day.  

Swearing..

Ok, ya this is an interesting topic actually. I had to go and sign few papers today and meet some one regarding it. I have known that person for a while, he's my friend's dad. And the funny thing is, when we were kids, everybody was very decent and posh talking to you and your family. Now that we have grown up , things change. And the men actually tend to count us in in there talks ( of ne kinds ). Well its good but sometimes you actually have to pretend you didnt hear the things which just flew by or just act busy in something.

 Even making dumb faces can help ;-)

Neways, its not a big issue but surely it'll take some ti

me to get into the habit of acknowledging the " swearings " :-). N mind you, hindi ones am talking about here.. !!
