I recently installed windows vista ultimate x64
I get a lot of errors if i try to download something like : " The data area passed to a system call is to small "
When it try to install something 9/10 times it says invalid image/certificate
And when I play music with media player the computer just freezes completely and I need to reboot it , this also happens with games like Guildwars.
Also when i try to burn images with vista burn program when i check the dvd the images are just completely ruined with all kind of weird stripes and colors

Anyone got any tips of I can cure these problems ?

um... you sure you've actually installed vista? 'cause i've NEVER seen those errors, or even heard about them.

make sure you have a legit (cough cough) copy of vista, not some cracked version you picked off the internet, and reinstall. make sure to have all the device drivers for it also.
