Was considering installing VISTA on a new hard drive. Will this give me more or less FPS in FS(?TurnipSystem Specs:Motherboard = P5-GL-MXP4 3.0SB LiveATI Radeon X800 GTO (256) Overclocked to 550 Core / 525 Mem2 Gb Geil PC3200 Dual Channel RAM

I have Vista on a new pc cant see any major difference with FPS between XP and Vista. The O/S alone will prob not have any bearing on FPS as it is more down to what ahrdware you have to run it.

(Even after, what is it a year now?..) I can still see no reason to run FS9 or FSX on Vista. Even the DX10 bits aren't worth using Vista. XP still has way more headroom. I got curious again recently and thought I was being harsh on Vista, so I gave it a third chance - it still disappointed me and off it came.

Max, Why has it disappointe4d you? Could you explain a bit? I am able to run FS9 with no problems on it.

The only advantage I have heard of to Vista was for FSX, and that is only if using SLI with 64 bit.Best RegardsDonald T:-waveFLYing? It's cool. Trillions of birds and insects can't be wrong.
