I have a new PC with vista home premium – 32 bit. Apple reckon iTunes 8 is vista compatible. WRONG! I installed iTunes 8….backed up my library on my old pc (xp) and restored it on my new one. I didn’t plug the ipod itself or any other mp3/4 device into my computer. The next day, it wouldn’t start. I looked as though it has lost sight of my hard drive, or at least doesn’t recognise it as a boot device. I restored vista to a pre-itunes state, but its still doing it… I can workaround it by pressing F8 during boot, and selecting my hard drive as the Boot from… device, but its very annoying, and I need a fix for it please.

I have the very latest version of iTunes installed… but it hangs and crashes when I try to sync, doesnt like uploading my photographs.. that just kills the whole computer. Found the whole transition to Vista terrible. When I have the time, I am going back to XP… everything worked then.

Vista is so slow and painful to use.
