There could be several reasons;

  1. I work in the IT since ‘87, so I guess I’m supposed to more know more about computers
  2. I think I run descent hardware to run Vista, in my case a Q9450 Quad, 8800GT, 8GB RAM and fast hard drives with 110 MB/sec transer speed (most drives reach only 60-75MB sec)
  3. I did a fresh install of Vista
  4. I never installed SP1, I installed a fresh copy of Vista with SP1 integrated
  5. Everthing is up-to-date, which includes things like lates updates, hardware drivers, bios updates, chipset updates, etc
  6. Hardware was built by myself and has gone through long stress and diagnostics tests before I intalled Vista.
