Vista dreamscenes?

**verena xeventus** · October 16, 2008, 01:08 PM

Ok I've been told today, by a computer shop that windows vista HOME premium has the dreamscene features... and the reason my laptop doesn't have this feature is that the graphics card isn't capable enough of running it and it is disabled.

I have been told from alternate sources that only vista ULTIMATE has this feature.

So, if vista home premium does have dreamscenes, how on earth do I enable them?:hmmm:

I believe its Ultimate only, I have Home and Do not have it.

HD4850 is broken, I RMA'd it, and Now apparently their bankrupt... so I Need to wait another few weeks for it. I'm using 8600GT that my supplier lent me, which was very nice of him!

If you read my Post about the Antec 900, You'll know I have bought one of them. Everything else seems to be in working order.

DreamScenes is NOT available for any other version other than Ultimate. It is an Ultimate only feature.

LOLWUT?

What is dreamscene? Because I can tell you for a fact I saw nothing like it when I was using Vista.

It's just animated wallpaper. I have it on my internet and htpc computers. Some of them are pretty nice and look good when the computer isn't in use, especially on my htpc computer in the living room running on my plasma t.v.

Ok thanks guys, should have got ultimate for my new computer (which I still haven't got yet, but it's too late to make alterations). Sorry to hear about your card wheelchair.

It is not as widely known, but M$ put a bit of a backdoor in Vista to try to entice the more cheap and "share"-friendly people (pirates) to get into Vista at a lower price point in that you can do a full install straight from an Vista Upgrade disc...which is considerably cheaper than a "full" version.

Plus, Windows Vista Upgrade comes with both 32 AND 64-bit versions.

Well, it was a joke with the WinXP upgrade (have either win98 or win95 disk handy you can even ask your friend to borrow one), and it's even a bigger joke with the Vista upgrade, which does not require any previous OS.

Any of you wants to know how to install Vista (completely legal, it's in their copyright terms) completely clean and fully to an empty disk, from a Vista "upgrade only" disk, let me know!
