Okay, firstly apologize for my ignorance I really do try to learn.
My mother's laptop just died, and there's 2 programs that she uses that Vista was the last OS they run properly on, and basically these programs are pretty much all that matter to her (plus not learning a new interface). :eek:
So she bought a new Win 8 laptop, and realistically, what chance is there of installing Vista on it instead? I don't know enough to know all the factors. Okay, this is the laptop: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16834312518 ... :o
So I'm reading that Win 8 has some kind of "security" bios or something and also it seems that there would need to be Vista drivers for this? I mean I couldn't just take the drive out, format it, and install Vista? :p
Any help or ideas would be appreciated.
