Microsoft offers free phone support for Vista SP1

While most Download Squad readers who took part in our informal poll say that Windows Vista SP1 has either improved their Vista performance, or at least hasn't broken their PCs, some folks are bound to have issues with any upgrade. And over 100 of you told us that Vista SP1 has caused some problems for you. Fortunately, it looks like Microsoft is offering some help.

The company will offer support for Vista SP1installation and compatibility issues through March 18, 2009. You can either submit your questions via email, login to a support chatroom, or call 1-866-234-6020 to receive free telephone support.

Or you could just uninstall Service Pack 1 and wait for Service Pack 2 or Windows 7, whichever is released first.

If you're having that many problems, then switch to Ubuntu! Hardy is looking quite nice.
