Vista Beta hangs

[Guest]

Sometimes when you click back button in Explorer or attempt to open a new
program Vista will hang up. If I press ctrl,alt,del the new task screen comes
up, click on start task manager and the program opens or explorer returns to
the first open page. I'm running Office 2007 beta also. Plus, Vista takes way
too long to load. XP starts much faster. I figure this will be solved in the
public version.

Yes, it will get better when more drivers come out. Ive had slow slow slow
start ups b/c of drivers. It was a combo of my video driver and sound driver.
I finally got my video driver to work but still cant get the sound driver to
work properly. Just un install all your devices that require drivers that are
not supported by vista. then restart and one by one install a device and when
u have a slow start up you'll know which driver is conflicting. Maybe even
some of these so called "Vista Beta" drivers from hardware companys. I got
the vista beta driver from realtek and it is just like an xp driver. Hangs,
hangs, hangs, hangs and is slow.

Control Panel.... "performance ratings and tools" if theres a driver thats
slowing your bootup time alot (or shutdown time etc) it will be mentioned
under "Performance issues" and you can tell straight off what your dealing
with. Also check out "Problem Reports and Solutions", tick em all, and check
for solutions. Tis quick and easy, and if it dont work, try above
