Actually Vista seems to be behaving itself.

One of the probs was an old USB Belkin memory card reader I had atttatched yesterday. It caused BSD's and reboots.

Once I unpluged it and did a system repair, things seem better. Just used Word and converted a Word doc to PDF using Acrobat 7 (which Adobe does not recommend in Vista by the way, but what the hell, it works). Been running solid for 4 hours nearly and no crashes or lock ups.

To be fair, XP had its quirks too and could also screw up on you.

Will cintinue for a couple more days before doing anything drastic. I like Vista despite these teething troubles.

Is it growing on me....????
You should be good to go. I use Acrobat 7 too. 8 can be a problem. You might consider doing a repair install to eliminate your niggling problems. At least that is what I would do. No guarantees though--except that the procedure is 99.99% safe.
