“I can recommend Deep Burner. It’s simple, slim and free and works perfectly on Vista.”
I can recommend Ubuntu. Or Fedora or Mandriva, for that matter. Just about any Linux will do. As said before, the only legit reason not to use Linux is high-end gaming. Oh, yeah, and Adobe’s CS. Or if you run Mac OS X, then iLife. Other than those, most Linux distros get the job done sooner than Windows. For normal stuff (like Office, Firefox), my 5+ year old Dinosaur runs just as fast with Ubuntu as my dad’s new Vista machine. With 1/4 of the resources.

I have a 3 year old system and still i run vista but have never found this problem.
I use nero v7.15.something and it runs like a charm.
Full cd takes 5 mins to burn and a dvd 4.something gb takes 30 mins to burn.
So many vista haters and linux fanboys.
Linux cannot even install photoshop cs3 without 54651468465468465465165565655984351654654654654654654654654654564

I’m guessing that people who bash vista installed it on old machines. I got a brand new Dell laptop with vista home premium and *everything* works like a charm.

Please somebody help me. I can’t get the video DVDs I burn with Vista to read on any player. I edit with an old version of Adobe Premiere and then use Adobe Encore to encode and burn. On my old computer this was foolproof.
When Adobe Encore burns it does so without Windows offering me the 2 different DVD formatting options, so I’m unable to choose the Master option which I understand would be the one I need. Is this the problem? How can I get around this? If I don’t use Encore, what other software can I use to make the material exported from Premiere readable anywhere?

haha, how typical – 2^32 seconds…

I wonder do you have a 32-bit build and if you had a 64-bit build, would you get ridiculously more days, or you already have a 64-bit build and if you had a 32-bit build you’d have a little fewer days to wait…

Prometheus,

Linux is prime time, baby. The only legitimate reason to NOT use Linux is high-end gaming. Aside from that, if you can’t use Linux it’s because you have been corrupted by a candy-ass operating system that ties your hands behind your back and attaches a lamprey to your wallet. Microsoft exists to make people stupid as to how a computer actually works, making it seem like the average person can’t possibly understand the intricacies of the OS. Ubuntu doesn’t do this. Ubuntu gives the typical user everything he wants and needs, AND makes it easy for that average user to do some heavy-duty tasks.

The people who think Linux needs more time are little more than corporate stooges. Get the fencepost outta yer ass and come join the FOSS community.
