    Default Windows Vista problems

    My sister's computer came with Vista loaded on it. They're having a problem with the computer reading digital cameras and CDs with saved images on them. The computer is telling them that the images are "incompatible JPEG"s. The images of course are still on the SD cards as you can see them on a computer using XP and the USB connector. Vista blows! Does anyone know how to spank the Vista OS into submission so that these kinds of problems don't occur?

    ...other than removing the OS from the computer and installing XP. Anyone have a computer nerd bug fix?

    ...and shaddup Mac users.

    Hey Tone, i goggled "vista incompatible jpeg" and couldn't find anything that seemed to address the problem. This is going to sound stupid, but have you updated all the drivers?

    Well I dunno it's not my computer it's my sisters. I'm getting the information about it as it comes via email. I haven't actually sat down and seen what it's doing. A while back prior to this current problem my sister called me on the phone to ask why her computer wasn't showing the cam photos on the CD I had just burned for her days before. When I saved her photos to a CD using her computer they all burned perfectly...yet a few days later her computer wasn't showing anything. I'm just blaming it all on Vista but you may be right about updating all drivers on her computer Shiner. Who knows. I just know that Vista is weird and I can't believe Microshaft will be discontinuing XP with so many "issues" involving their new OS. This is getting to be too much. Soaring gas and food prices...aliens invading our privacy...and Windows XP going away...the world is coming to an end I'm telling you.

    Download Linux. It's meant to be the dog's bollocks as far as OS are concerned.

    And it's free. . .

    And to complete the play I took the mac when he tried to stop you from taking the Xbox360 and Orange Box.

    I replaced it with a commodore 64, he'll never know the difference. :
