I have just installed vista and i can't surf internet.i use dial up with 56k modem.Also i can't play games,though i've just tried one game ie fifa06 worl cup.Can anyone tell me how can i play games and sufr net in vista
 
What exactly is the problem you're running into? You can't get a connection, or your internet browser won't load...? Can be a number of things we kind of need a little more specific.

As far as the game, well same question. What isn't working? Can't install it? Can't open it? Or it runs but the graphics are messed up? It crashes frequently?
 
Well i don't have drivers for vista if you know the site pls tell me .My modem smart link 56k.When i try to connect it does't even dial the number.While in case of game when i open the game it try to start and after some flickers a box comes up and says windows is trying to find the problem.
 
SmartLink was acquired by Conexant. I checked their website and they don't have Vista drivers for any of their modems (PCI or USB). You could try your XP drivers which might work.
 
Well I am sorry to say you will not be able to revert back to an earlier XP setup, I would recommend people to stay away from beta version os OS's unless they are software aces or actually testing it for a legitamate reason. You can't install the final released retail version either with beta installed.

/Vista rant....

I think you are absouletly right and i have already installed newXP and deleted vista
 
Just to help out anyone else with this problem-
Build 5384 has a large bug in Internet Explorer. Not only is it ugly, but it also stops connecting to the internet after a fair amount of use.
My solution was to an alternate browser (Firefox) and I can browse now, but I rarely use Vista anyway.
