I purchased this to upgrade from an earlier version of Windows and was hoping it would work well on my old laptop. It is terrific--faster and more stable than it's predecessor. I realize that it doesn't come with all the bells and whistles of later versions, and that tech support is limited, but it works well for my purposes! My next step is to upgrade to 8.1, but I have this as a fall back if that proves too powerful for my old laptop.

I have an upgrade version of Windows XP and not the full version. After installing this full version of Windows Vista, I notice that I am fortunate that HP still offers driver and software support for this operating system. Otherwise I would have been out of luck and would have had to purchase the full version of Windows XP. So, with the exception of driver support worries, no complaints thus far...

I've used Vista for some time and it has been reliable for me. Easy to install. Works as expected. No problems. If there is a problem, it is not with an average user. I am somewhat more demanding since I have built and loaded software myself......but as a user.....Vista works for me. Low price. Easy to find. Not a risk.

It doesn't work, a total waste of money, even with a new hard drive for a clean copy of the program, I'm sorry I can't give a good opinion of it.
