Im sorry if this isnt the right place but i couldnt be sure where to post this. I have windows vista and every day it seems something is stopping working in my browsers because they say they no longer support Vista. My computer is connected to a line that comes up thru the floor to my comp. Can i still get one that connects like that? Thanks.
 
Hello

A lot of browsers have stopped supporting Vista.. But supposedly Opera still supports Vista.. So you know.. What is your budget for a new pc with no wifi?


Just found these..

  • Slimjet – A popular choice
  • K-Meleon Browser – Highly customizable
  • Maxthon – Advanced security
  • MyPal – Limited features but up-to-date
Browsers that still support vista.. So you know
 
Thanks. Opera wont download. Slimjet has something called flashpeak. Will that take over my computer? I dont understand what that is.
 
My budget is somewhat limited which is why i keep trying to work around all the problems with Vista. Malnutrition was very helpful. What are the lower priced comps going for?
 
just be aware that going to Linux will be a learning curve - how much of one will be subjective.
than there is the software and hardware limitations that may come along.
in short, every bit of hardware and software is made to work on Windows, that cannot be said for Linux.
as to whether this limitation may affect you, you'll only find out the hard way! (y)

My comp is 13 years old so i dont know if its worth all that trouble. Malnutrition did a great job helping me fix alot of stuff but every day something else seems to stop working right. When i try to log on sometimes a screen with flashing lights comes on and it wont load. Turning it on and off will eventually get it to load up. On facebook i can no longer chat in messenger and the only way i can reply to a message is to copy my reply from somewhere and then paste it with a smiley face. Some sites just say i need to update my browser but neither chrome or firefox will update any more.
 
I downloaded slimjet and it is slow as molasses and its doesnt seem to let me get on the sites i already cant get on like bank.truist.com
 
it says something about a certificate not being valid for the site. I can access the site on my phone. Will a new comp fix this?
