In case anyone wonders about Vista compatabilty.

I'm running a dual boot system with Vista Ultimate (OEM) and XP.

AM2 Dual core 5200 Athlon, 2 gig ddr2 667, 8800 GTS video card with 320 MB, 250 SATA HD

The following progammes all seem to be working OK:-

CS2 Photoshop

CS2 Illustrator

I View Media Pro

ACDsee Pro v8

DxO Optics Pro V 4.2

Photodex Pro Show Gold

Net Objects Fusion 10 (Web designer)

Fixerlabs Sizefixer SLR ( although you need to install Net Framework 1.1 and 1.1 sp1 to run it).

Office 2003 suite.

Flight Sim FSX deluxe.

I've also got a novatech 19" wide screen monitor (DVI or VGA)(approx £ 125) and it's fantastic.

Hope this helps

Vista is great Charlotte, I am still playing about with it and finding out new stuff.

For instance the Search facility is almost instantaneous

Run vista and Xp, Vista okay but still has compatibility problems.

It is a good os and aero glass is a beut. But IMHO I wont rush out to upgrade until service pack 1 is released, or get it free if you are buying a new rig.
