Vista bug OTD
-
I was trying out the external drive enclosure I bought recently (but the only drive I had lying around was an ancient Quantum, heavy, loud, and only 12GB!). I dragged my source directory over to it and once the progress bar hit 100%, I ended up with this: clickety :omg:

Ah, it took me at least 5 minutes to see what the bug was. I was so stunned by the beautiful Vista graphics. Nothing will ever be the same to me anymore now. Not my lowly XP OS, not my girlfriend, not my cat. Damn you, Microsoft! ;P Marc

That's why the "Less info" button is there. Clears the problem right up. Mark

A tyrant must put on the appearance of uncommon devotion to religion. Subjects are less apprehensive of illegal treatment from a ruler whom they consider god-fearing and pious. On the other hand, they do less easily move against him, believing that he has the gods on his side. - Aristotle

I have Windows 98 and an external usb connected hard drive and often get the same type of message when moving large files. You'd think they would have fixed it by now?
