Help needed hiding Windows Vista
« on: March 20, 2009, 01:26:25 pm »
I inherited a nicely set up arcade machine. The problem is that it is running Vista. All of the guides that I can find for hiding the start up/shut down screens, etc. are for XP. Is there a similar guide for Vista that someone could point me in the direction of?

BASS!

I would recommend setting up xp and migrating your files over to that. I do not know of any guides to hide vista yet. It is a pretty accepted fact that xp is the way to go.

If looking around, I think you are right. I guess I will back up everything and load XP.
