I have been trying Vista for a while and trying to see if I could get on
with it but the other day I got out my Sony Camcorder and tried to use the
USB streaming feature on it as I had no problem always using it in XP I
thought oh well in must work in Vista if I just load the Sony USB drivers -
wrong!
I went to the Sony website which said it wasn't supported in Vista and sent
Sony an email and they confirmed that USB streaming is not available in
Vista and they have no plans to introduce any new drivers or patches so that
it will work and suggested I use firewire instead.
My new PC only has 2 PCI sockets so now I have to use up one of those
sockets with a PCI Firewire card if I want to go that way - so bugger that I
have gone back to XP now and got my streaming back, like using IE6 instead
of IE7 and feel like I have been reacquainted with an old friend and like
using XP much better plus there are huge load of programs and software for
XP out there. Maybe after Vista has been out for a year it might be better
but the way I feel at the moment is that out of XP & vista I know myself
which one is the best operating system.
