If you already own a printer since
Windows XP, there are chances they won't work on Vista. To
find a Vista compatible hardware, you need to be aware of 3
things. In this article I will show you the 3 principles to
get Vista compatible hardware.
Principle #1 - Find the "Certified for Windows Vista" logo.
You need to find the logo on your hardware's packing box,
this logo indicates the hardware is design for Vista, and
you can expect the best out of it when working with Vista,
the logo might be embedded on your hardware itself.
Principle #2 - Find the "Works with Windows Vista" logo.
This logo indicates compatible with Windows Vista, but might
not support some advanced features in Vista. If you are
selecting normal black and white printer, there will be no
difference between "Certified for" or "Works with" Windows
Vista. However, hardware like sound card and 3D video card
will have significant differences, because Vista advanced
API will enhance both types of hardware's experience!
Principle #3 - Checks compatible online.
You may visit your vendor's hardware website for more
information, or go to Microsoft Windows Quality Online
Service website for lists of compatible hardware.
Using Vista inevitably requires you, and will encourage you
to spend more money for better experience! Which is why
gamer likes Vista a lot! (Hate them as well, when comes to
compatibility!) Many users will migrate to Vista for better
experience, and when the hardware is fast enough, no one
will go back to XP anymore!
