Windows Vista isn't Windows NT 3.x. In the internal versioning, it's not even 4.0.

  Indeed, it is something better, Windows NT 6.0. And it is irrelevant anyway, given that this comment was written from 10.0.26100.

    Oh, I see. You’re saying they improved the design. I know they added user-privilege device driver support for USB (etc).; did they revert the display compromise/mess as well?

      Yes, now graphics drivers are mostly in userspace, with only a tiny driver in kernel space, miniport. Hence why graphics usually no longer crash Windows, after a small black screen pause, everything continues as usual. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/drivers/display/windows-vista-display-driver-model-design-guide https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/drivers/d...
