AMD A64 3200+ GeForce 6800 OC 128mb 2GB DDR-400 Ram 2x 200GB 7200RPM WD Installed Vista 64-Bit in an hour. Working, Microsoft rating of 3.0 Actually Uses all 15 GB necessary for installation. Installed on a 30GB partition. Here's what's supposed to happen if you're lucky: After burning the ISO onto DVD, I shut down my computer and disconnected my Primary Harddrive (the one with my OS installed). Booted Up to the DVD and was greeted with a blank screen with a gray loading bar. About 1 min later, it booted into the DVD. Showed the Vista Login background and loaded for about 10 mins. After it loaded, the Installation setup was similar to Mac 10.4. From here, you accept license agreements, enter the key, enter information, and select which partition to format/install. Took me about 30 mins for the installation process. During the 3rd step, the computer restarted, but continued with the installation after that. Vista booted after the installation was completed. Since I used the 64-bit version, I was unable to get Divx and such codecs to work. My Motorola wireless card was automatically picked up, and a DVD codec had been implemented by Microsoft. AIM was not compatible with Vista, but Windows Live Messenger BETA works. Firefox works. DirectX 10 is installed by default. Couldn't get Rakion(game) to boot up as it gives me an error during update. I've heard that CS:S is able to load, but runs with some problems, but I haven't given it a go yet. Now I'm just playing around with the features. Pretty good, reminds me of Tiger.
