Exepecting your Replay

"Attempt to upgrade to Windows 7 "could not be installed on this computer."
Microsoft engages in planned obsolescence instead of supporting legacy hardware."
Or maybe technology has progressed to you point where your 8 year old computer can no longer handle it.

"I paid about $100 to downgrade from WinXP to Vista"
Surely you mean upgrade.

"Nothing on the box at the store told me why to choose Pro over Home Basic"
Take the initiative and to some research.

"Vista Forgets I'm the only user so I am the administrator"
Disable UAC

"Vista didn't support my AGP card or dual monitor card for Movie Maker"
lolwut

"My Dual Monitor card supports 1600x1200 pixels, more than enough resolution."
Pardon?

"Microsoft Editors Corrupt My Data"
Say what you mean man.

"Word gets confused and prevents formatting changes on long documents. "
I'm almost sure a computer program cannot get 'confused.'

"Notepad corrupts some kinds of text files in some situations"
I'll give you this one.

"Vista Killed My Ability To Print Envelopes (same printer works fine under XP)"
Good luck getting this to work on linux.

"Vista even killed it under OpenOffice - they spike 3rd party software."
You'r an idiot.

"Vista withholds access to Documents and Settings folder"
No it doesn't.

"Good thing I only use gmail if I can't save email files during upgrade"
Excuse me?

"Vista gave me a message that my 80Gb hard drive was bad and it must be replaced to boot up, it wasn't.
I waited a few days then it rebooted normally. Why did they scare me?"

Sounds like a BIOS issue to me.

i got the same email with the same winning details every thing im not going to trust it but its up to you guys

Probably that package comes with Cyberlink DVD suite, Roxio or another burning suite where you can burn movies to DVD.

Those applications are outside of Microsoft Vista as they are part of the "PC package" (ie bundled software with your hardware and software combination), which is maybe why you got little or no help from microsoft.

However, Vista is a poor operating system, no question, whether it be the Vista Ultimate version you are buying or the Business or Home versions of Vista.

Note, when referring to Ultimate, most people are referring to an operating system *version* with all the knobs and whistles, not making a *claim* (as in "this is the ultimate (best) operating system you can buy").

If you purchased Vista Ultimate it should include Windows DVD Maker as per the link below, which allows you to burn your home movies (though not copy-protected content like Feature Films) :

i got same E-mail today obviously its a scam be carefull

I Am winn 1000000 GBP please Send my Prise

I have got the same mail - and interestingly the details of the award particulars are identical to mine! I am a very suspicious since I did reply and got a mail asking me to give my banking details.pd

i agree

SCAM! Just delete the email. It's not real!

My name is fathee ( fatheesaleh@yahoo.com)
I recived this message if that true or scam

heres another person that is now rufusing to buy anything to do with xbox and xbox live, after selling my xbox a few months back i realised i had to cancel my account with xbox live. no problem, i thought. all they will need is my card details in order to cancel... well that wasnt the case apparently i needed to give them all the details like my old phone number and the e-mail address i used to register. well i couldnt remember half of this stuff.
so even though i had given the person all of my card details (which is the only thing they really needed to take the money out in the first place) they still refused to cancel.

i rang my bank and told them to block payments from xbox live or cancel the direct debit... but conveniently for them, there was no direct debit for xbox live, it was simply them using my details every month to take money out of my account which i had explicitly told them not to anymore ... HOW CLOSE TO ILLEGAL CAN THIS BE ?
anyway so in the end i had to cancel my card, block all payments from it, and wait 7-10 days for a new card wich really wasnt convenient.
honestly, any other company doing this would be accused of being con-artists, but because its microsoft people take it as a legit proceedure.
and i havent even gone into how useless the woman on the other end of the phone was, i could barely hear her, and she gave me no information that was of any help to me whatsoever.

saying that, this isnt the first time microsoft have been caught using dirty tricks to rake in the most cash from a situation.

please send me the reply soon

these all are just damn total frauds, , don, t pay attention to them

To Whom It May Concern:

I am writing to place an official complaint against Microsoft Xbox since I received the worst customer service I have ever seen! To give you my perspective, I will start from the beginning so you are fully aware of the terrible experience I have had with your company. First, my Xbox console suddenly broke just 2 weeks after my warranty expired so I called your service department to get some help and troubleshooting to see if I could fix this problem. During my very first of many phone calls to Xbox at 1-800-4myxbox they could not help me at all with this problem. All they could offer me was a phone call from someone at your repair department FOUR days later! First of all, that is incredibly slow turn around time… especially for a customer service issue! It is absurd that I have to wait four days just for a phone call from you. When someone finally called me, Sam (extension number 7122) in your Special Repair Department he was absolutely NO help and was very rude to me over the phone. It all started when he called me two hours before the scheduled time at 7am when I was told he would call between 9am and 11am that day. Because he called me so early, I missed the call since I was sleeping. I had to wait another day for him to call me back. Again, he called an hour before the scheduled time, at 8am. Luckily, I was able to answer my phone but it ended up being a completely useless conversation since he could not offer me ANY assistance! He would not even provide me with an address to file a complaint or service request! He told me this information I needed was online but he was not authorized to give it to me. That makes absolutely NO sense to me why he could not even provide me with the simplest piece of information. Sam was incredibly rude and short tempered with me and said he could only help me repair it if I paid $119! I don’t feel that I should have to pay that ridiculous amount, especially after the HORRIBLE service I have received from multiple reps at your company! He told me there is nothing they can do to get it repaired under warranty because it was expired by two weeks. I can understand that you have a policy and regulations to follow with a warranty but I have invested over $2017 with Microsoft on Xbox alone and have received absolutely no help from any of your service reps. I have only had this Xbox console for just over one year and it is completely useless to me since the defect in this product (33% of all Xbox consoles manufactured will experience) makes it inoperable.

In addition to all of this, I was not even able to get my Xbox Live monthly subscription refunded for the $7.95 I paid! I can’t use this service if my console is broken so I just wasted that money. I can’t believe you are not able to refund this small amount of money to me for something that I won’t be able to use unless I pay you the $119 for repairs! It’s a good thing I didn’t choose to subscribe to the 6 or 12 month plan because you would have had even more of my valuable money.

I have a lot of friends who also use Xbox and I guarantee I will be telling everyone about this terrible experience, including any and all postings online relating to service issues. You are losing a great customer over this issue and will NEVER buy any Microsoft products again because I know I will not ever be able to get any assistance after purchasing a product. It just makes me feel that after you have my money, I’m just on my own and can only get service on my products if I pay you more money. This is no way to do business and keep your customers happy and unfortunately for you, I will no longer be a customer of yours.

Regards,

Taylor

Of course it's real! Why wouldn't someone write to you out of the blue offering you a million bucks! Heck, it happens to me all the time -- I've received more millions than I can count! And they only want $775 for you to get a million dollars? Sounds like the DEAL OF THE CENTURY TO ME!

Do not send them money or go to the office. It's 100% fake.

we have the same email received.guys beware of that.
