Guess vista is not designed for s478

confirm is DIMM even though i dun have a DDR2 rig, i feel like sapu the RAMs already!

yes, no need patch, torrent works fine.

Maybe a trimp down version of vista will work fine for S478. Where lotsa unwanted thingy been killed and took away.

@Edmin

talking abt Vista....my friend's bro just passed a copy of Vista Ultimate *ehem* version last nite....it's gonna go into my C2D rig...hehe...damn XP pro can't fully utilize my rams....

so s478 cannot put in vista, judging frm recent postings here huh?

Maybe it's directX problem, try use DirectX 9.0L...

Well.. IMHO if without gaming, vista is a good way to go. Atleast feel refresh with the new aero interface.

without aero 3d = slower... then with aero 3d = slowest

Win95 even more stable. I have the original CD, interested?

not DirectX problem for sure

@ravewar
s478 can be installed with vista provided your hardware meets the requirement. like i said previously, doing daily tasks in vista with s478 is smooth, just some minor hiccups in 3D applications (lower framerates). I'll do a new test and report back 2 u guys soon when I have the time. Hopefully nvidia's latest vista drivers improved... some basic info of my rig: P4 3.0GHz HT, P4P800, 2GB DDR400, Nvidia 7600GT 256MB, Xfi Extrememusic.

Boss what's your rig you have ?Let me know and i add you in the list.

Add my rigs into the list too pls

bro, if your hardware is up to date, the aero 3D interface flies....

when i say that the non aero vista interface is slow, i meant that it is less responsive compared to aero 3D on a capable machine.

Haha.. Whats the point of w98 and w95 man? Where u gain speedy OS but u can do nothing with it. Recently game / apps are not supported.

Anyhow, it is just unoptimized driver for old sch cards like edmin mentioned in previous. So far those new card 8/9 series are doing quite well in gaming with vista. Eve now, benchies in made on vista machine already.

my Rig#2 only have 1GB of rams..... ... mebbe better stay with XP first, before doing anything drastic....

I'll prolly usik my C2D first....

It WAS stable when i run it on my Pentium mmx rigs

yeap, nowadays NTFS a hell lot better that FAT32, if u guys are talking on OS. I would say at least Win2k to meet today's 'stability' standards.

Boss,added you in the list already.

Thanks brother

By the way... any linux fan here?

the good old days slap in a 3dfx Voodoo FTW

Oh man,why go for Win 95 or Win 98 ? Not user friendly in terms of drivers and memory allocation is lausy for both OS.
