> I just bought a new HP computer with Vista on it.  We found a good sale on
> it but we really got what we paid for. "Will I ever learn?"   Vista is
> terrible, at this stage.  You can't download things easily.   It  only came
> with junky programs or ones that you can only get for 60 day trial period.
> Because of Vista, you have to get extra help from the companies before you
> can download your favorite old programs or installation discs.  Everyone
> told me AFTER I bought the computer that I should have waited till Microsoft
> got the bugs worked out, just as they did with XP.  OR, I could have gotten
> a computer built with XP and the programs we use.   Our only solution now
> may be to spend more money to have Vista wiped off the harddrive and have XP
> installed back on the computer.  So much for sales.
>
> Legacy walked me through the download via the web ONLY.  Discs didn't work.
> But, now that I have Legacy downloaded, it's BLANK!  (I'm shouting with
> frustration!)  All my data is still on my old laptop with XP.  Does anyone
> have suggestions for transferring the data?
>
> One other big question, when I retrieve info from Ancestry.com, how can I
> import it directly to Legacy?  I usually have to write it in longhand and
> then type it into Legacy.  That's very time consuming and prone to mistakes.
>  Thanks for any suggestions to these problems.
