However, this service has now grown so we have expanded the blog to incorporate help to anyone who experiences Computer problems, for those who do not want to spend a fortune trying to solve their issues, and who need advice and help from a fully qualified technician. You will find our approach straight forward and jargon free.

A PC within your PC

I have been reading a lot of complaints recently from people who have installed Vista on their system and can (apparently) get nothing working. So much so that in some cases they have resorted to wiping their systems and re-installing XP.

For my part I can not understand this. I am a pretty much self confessed download and try everything sort of guy and with the Exception of a demo of 3D studio max that I tried recently I have had no problems at all. Even this was no problem really. Just fired up a VMware session and installed it in my XP system and it works fine in their.

I agree with some that you should not jump i and install Vista on a mission critical PC upon which you rely to run particular software.. so whats the alternative. Well before I installed Vista fully I installed it in a VMware session and installed any "dubious" software in the session to see if there were any issues... non appeared so I did the full install to Ultimate. Perhaps you could try this.
