b.a. on vista vs windows 7/10

[docbrown]

I've been testing ba on window7(and windows 10)pc's. I can't seem to get ba running as well as it did on my old vista pc. The refresh errors are always higher on my windows 7/10 pc's. I would like to keep using my vista pc, but microsoft will stop supporting after april 2017.Any ideas?

Could it be the spec of the PCs? Are you trying them all on same connection?

I started on Vista, moved to 7, tried 10, stayed with 7.

Could you keep using the Vista PC just for BA? Remove everything else, don't open any other browsers/email/programmes, should be OK.

Could it be the spec of the PCs? Spec's on new pc(windows 7) are much better than old pc(vista). Are you trying them all on same connection? yes. Had both pc's running side by side. Could you keep using the Vista PC just for BA? Remove everything else, don't open any other browsers/email/programmes, should be OK. This is what i was thinking,i just hope it's safe.

I plan on continuing with my Vista laptop. I've got Kaspersky for security and I've ditched Chrome, replaced with Firefox as they still support 32bit Vista. I don't trade on it but as long as I use some precautions, never click links, it'll do as my coding testing platform (html/JavaScript/arduino/hobby). Also, I don't have any personal data on it anymore, thoroughly cleaned, I think.
