Umm i've raed that to run windows vista you might ned a little more memory than usual like 1 GB of RAM if you want to run it smooth. And one hell of graphics card.

That bites. Oh well better go ahead and start upgrading the PC again. Umm i'l just use XP for now anmd if its worth while then i'l go ahead and get a Vista!

SadisticSid, probably rumors again, I haven't read anything like that. There's an official document about driver compatibility in Vista here. I only viewed it briefly but didn't see it mentioning that compatibility is only temporary. Still, there are considerable changes in Vista which will break most current XP drivers. Good example of this are the XP x64 Audigy drivers which did not work while 3C940 NIC x64 drivers did.

AlphaOne, please read the very first post in this thread. Minimum and recommended system specs for Vista are mentioned there.

I'm kind of interested in trying out the Beta 2 but so far I've decided to wait for the RC1.

Unless I get somekind of energyboost along the way.
Habeeb it...

I'm sure there will be tons and tons of bugfixes and usability improvements between now and RC1 now that the development process is basically switching into debugging mode. RC1 might be a good time to get it if you've never checked out vista before, since that will likely be the build that will really be usable as a full time OS.

i'm actually planning on buying that, as my next computer purchase will be the parts necessary to build a 64 bit PC.

i'll look into vista later on, too.

If you have any common sense, you'll wait for SP1.

1) BUGs
2) Memory usage
3) I dint like to have my card working 24/7 on 3D.
4) DX10.
5) I hate to loss performance in DX9 Games.
6) I hate that microsoft kills OpenGL.
