i have 2 hp laptops, both came with vista home premium pre installed along with a load of *** that is intrusive and just outright annoying why cant ms supply windows on disc
They do supply windows on DVD, I'm looking at mine. Did you buy your computer from Microsoft? Maybe you should ask whoever sold you that box why a "disc" was not provided and why they loaded all that junk.
i would still expect to be able configure my pc as i want it i have paid for the operating system so why cant i have it to use on my pc how i like it and not as hp want me to have it
