i dont know wwsjs

i got vista installed and then spent ages trying to find the drivers as apple said 64 bit vista didnt work with the imac but i knew it did so i when in search of compatible drivers. so now its all working i think and just done the windows updates. next is to install a few programs and antivirus then i want to buy the first decade and then tommorow evening i will install xp which will hopefully run smoother as it isnt the 64 bit editition so should all work very nicely.

that is horible. I had xp booting in 18 seconds from the time i selected the drive to the login screen... On a macbook. You should check and make sure everything is working right and installed.

well it was just after i had installed a load of stuff on it and it was the first reboot after installing it so it may be quicker - i will redo it. but i just did vista ultimate and had that at 35 seconds
