What is wrong with Flip 3D and Control Panel in Windows Vista?
,----[ Quote ]
| At the same time running control panel is impossible. Control panel window
| appears for a very very short time (as an empty window) and disappears
| instantly. None of the components of control panel are operational. For
| example you cannot even change your background wallpaper.
| The confusing part is that it does not happen every time the system boots up.
|
| I googled the problem but found few things as to what the reason could be. It
| is suggested that a driver, or software that you have installed might be the
| problem. But believe me, you cannot find out which one is to blame.

| After 5 years of development, Vista still isn't ready for prime time.
| It's like taking a car without an engine and putting a new coat of
| paint on it. Sure it looks pretty, but it still doesn't work. I would
| wait at least 6 months if not a year to invest in Vista. In fact I
| personally will be putting XP on my laptop because Vista crashes too
| much for me to use everyday.

| This review doesn't take into account the DRM and anti-piracy
| issues that have been brought up by Vista. Without taking those
| into account I still wouldn't buy Vista.

Programs Cannot Be Uninstalled In Vista?
,----[ Quote ]
| Possibly after one of the latest updates in Windows Vista, two strange things
| happened: first, the Uninstall option is no longer available in the Control
| Panel when you right-click on older programs (most likely, those installed
| prior to the update in question, because uninstall works fine for recently
| installed programs — the Uninstall button is also missing on the toolbar at
| the top); second, some programs are no longer shown on the applications list
| in Control Panel (e.g., Yahoo Messenger).
