Re-install the drivers.

Are you sure you got the Vista drivers?

What make/model is the printer?

And FYI, if you back your documents up first before installing Windows 7 they won't be gone.

Your video card is the reason COD4 won't run smoothly (my guess).

I can receit 1s and 0s faster than your graphics card. If you want to play games, get a new one.

Vista is not the source of your slow games, or your printer problems, it's your severe lack of computer knowledge.

Look up the current crop of graphics cards and see what matches the performance/price you want.

www.techreport.com --- lots of good reviews there; just look at the review for the 5850 or the 5870 from ATI and you'll see other cards in the graphs

Vista also requires a lot more graphics power than XP. That's one reason. It's not Vista that sucks. It's your computer. What do you expect when you're using INTEGRATED graphics on a motherboard? Your own fault, tbh.

It's not bad at all. It's much better than XP, and almost as good as 7. It only got its bad name, as it was crappy when released, and Dell put it on every laptop they sold to the complete tech-retards with 512mB Ram and they all complained because they didn't know how to use it and it was slow due to Dell being stupid themselves.
