View Full Version : Idea - Make this the default Forceware forum

From where I sit, I see only 2 reasons to make this the default form.
1- The Vista users over inflated egos can't stand that this is a sub-forum.
2- You're to lazy to make one more click to get here.
What the hell difference does it make which one is the default as long as you don't have to sift through a thread to try and find out what OS they are talking about, like over at guru3d.
With that said, I don't really care which one is the default as long as I know that the forum I'm reading is for the OS that I am running at the time, whether it's one more click away or not.
my 2cents fwiw

you also have 47 chromosomes.
Now either Vista has untold more problems to report )
Yep, that sounds about right.
wow a lot more people want it moved than I thought... should have made a poll. I can't make one using edit can I?
Who cares if Mr. IQ 140 don't like Vista, if its the most used OS and gets most hits on the forum, it should be the default forum. Just switch them around and have the subforum to be "ForceWare XP Drivers".
But as we say here in Sweden this is an "I-lands problem". ;)

And this is probably the main incentive for Vista transition, 4GB+ of ram. Not that XP is obsolete and surprisingly not DX10 (yet). :p
(Yes, there's XP 64, than again if you migrate from XP 32 it might as well be to Vista)

I think there should be a forum for the Beta/Drivers from the company and a forum for custom drivers.
Just merge the forums and make sure that the individual threads are labeled for XP or Vista.
Making one a beta forum and one the release forum sounds good as well.

Agreed. I have been coming to this part of the forums for some time now. It works for me as is though. I can see this area of the forums from the main forum index.

i doubt it... everyone i talk to seems to like xp more
Well as already posted on page 2 in this thread, the Vista driver threads do get a lot more views. My simple check right now:
* XP
"32BIT ONLY - 174.12 WinXP Feedback Thread - 32BIT ONLY"

* Vista
"32BIT ONLY - 174.12 WinVista Feedback Thread - 32BIT ONLY"

Yeah, its doesn't really say anything as this can be due to discussion (making for more clicks) etc. But when it occurs all time, it becomes a pattern.

This website is notorious for being pro-Vista.
I've yet to meet a single person not from here that is.
Personally I would want the vista drivers to be the primary section, but it isn't what the majority of people want. Four times throughout the day, I have looked at the total number of people in the xp section versus how many people were in the vista only section, my findings.
currently(6:13): xp=41 vista=15
This has been consistent throughout the day. One objection some may have is that even though the xp section has more people in it, vista appears to be more active and vocal.
I am sure there is a stats counter thing for which OS hits the site..and there is no way that its a 50% Vista to XP..
so how do we get this done?
blah... I wank to Vista... blah...
What do you think?

Still, have fun with your many Vista bugs (not to mention low performance and poor compatibility) :D
