Vista on UCD network

valor

Anyone know if Comp services/ILTG will put my new laptop with Vista Home Premium on the network?

I can't see why not. The wireless network doesn't need regestering at all. The wired does, but I can't see why it wouldn't work in any case.

Yea, there really is no "putting" it on the network. For wireless it will work without consulting them and for the wired network they just need the mac address which has nothing to do with the operating system on the computer.

oh really? i dont have to go to ILTG and get them to do some **** to "put" me on the network? I had to do that in first year with my non dell laptop

If all you want to do is the wireless network (and NOT the wired), then no, you don't need to register it.

Red Alert

Seen as you mentioned ILTG it sounds like it's your in commerce or something - not sure but don't they 'do' more stuff to your laptop than computer services?

And Vista will work perfectly on the network

As the others said, its grand. I got my new vista laptop set up on the network last week. No problems at all!
