Vista Premium with Aero requires plain DX 9.0 with SM2.0. Radeon X800 is a DX9.0b GPU with support for SM2.0b in hardware, exceeding all Vista requirements.

I would think the main issue here is that P4X400 mainboard. Not the video card. I would be concerned with bad capacitors and having to run the video card in 4x AGP mode to get it to work.

We all need to face one fact, to properly run Vista it's going to require new hardware, and a lot of RAM.

But as was said, I guess we really need to wait for the final release in January. Then we'll all see what hits the fan! Chris.

Well I have Vista final installed and so far no problems but only have a few programs installed. I also have the Ati video drivers installed so may install a few games and see what happens.

Yeah, let me know if your games run because most of mine won't even install and if they do run they look' run like crap. Chris.

Chris as my Vista install was an upgrade from RC2 early version, I decided to clean install it so will take a couple of days checking stuff before loading any games, will keep you posted.
