Yet Another Massive Windows Vista Bug...
August 29th 2007 16:18
Another one of those bugs that could only be found on a Windows operating system, given how many people actually use it finding absurd errors in it becomes the norm rather quickly. So whats the latest?
Well Windows Vista prioritizes media playing to ensure it's always smooth irrespective of the load on the computer. Anyway, this bug is related to this system Vista uses to play media, basically if you have a 1GB NIC and a 1GB networkand another interface running on the same computer if you play Music on it and try to transfer files between PCs through the network you lose about 20% of the bandwidth.
How the? I mean, how the hell does anyone find such an absurd bug? Oh, thats right, Vista, lots of people use it (as much as they hate to admit it). Mmmm, I wonder whats next in the world of awesomely awesome massive bugs that makes Vista a useless piece of software.

What software would it be? Microsoft tends to keep a high level of backwards compatibility, I haven't really had any problems with Vista running older software...
