Please use a more meaningful title next time. It will be better for you as you will get much better responses.

pl make your thread subject upto point n sensible... Not like " urgent help needed" .. Hope u correct it next time.

The only problems could be USB drivers for glb 502t (may not be available) and IPv6.

1. For USB driver problem, connect using LAN cable - no drivers needed.
2. For IPv6 problem (if it occurs), downgrade to IPv6.

But I will NOT recommend you to go for Vista. Unless you have 1 GB RAM, you will suffer. You may suffer even with 1 GB RAM.

I would stick with the XP if it were me. i would like to go back to that if possible.

I agree, I have Vista and it only gives problems. I know a lot of people with Vista that are returning to XP. There are many softwares that do not agree with Vista and it gives configuration issues.

I would suggest,don't go for Vista now ,as it still has a lot of bugs and latency issues ,more over finding the appropriate drivers for the hardware devices is a headache.Software compatibility issues

Plus u have 1 gb of ram ,it will run as if xp is running with 128 mb of RAM

The worst thing i hate about Vista is if u forget ut NT login password you wouldnt be able to change your password from Admin account ,like in XP...U have to re image or reinstall Vista again ,losing all the data,unless ur smart enough to back up a CD with the password stored in it.

if u want xp to have a look of Vista ,the most used Theme pack is Bricopacks 2.0 ... heres the link if ur intested

I think you meant IPv4 in the 2nd point ........... just4kix,correct me if im wrong

Sorry. Typo mistake. I meant "downgrade from IPv6 to IPv4".

You should stick with xp but vista ain't that bad either.
