Already knew most of the issues you're mentioning, doesn't matter what you or I say, all new puters come with Vista, we got no choice friend
I have to care about the masses.  I support the masses all day long.  I am telling everyone, if you chose to install Vista, the game will run worse than it did under XP.  There is no way around that and it is not something we can change.

In one breath, you claim you want to help, then in another, you say screw everyone else.  A bit of a contridiction there.

There are so many issues with various hardware and software packages, it would be irresponsible for anyone to say Vista is a-ok for the masses.

I said Vista is a pile-o-poop, and that is from my experience.  Or did you only want to hear the good things about it?

Again, I have several shelves full of very high end software which will never run under Vista.  Partially due to lack of driver support (ASIO), or partially due to DRM (forget about HD editing, unless it is your own content created from scratch.).

Aces High II runs worse under Vista.

Now, none of the above is about tech babble.  It is about real problems with the OS.  But they are not problems, as much as they are design choices.  Meaning, they will not be corrected, because they were never meant to be supported.

If you do not want the truth, then just say so,  Or better yet, don't ask for experiences when you do not want to hear about them.

Vista seems to be a solution in search of a problem. I haven't seen anything where vista is a marked improvement for the average home user and or gamer, particularly in view of the issues regarding video and sound drivers / cards.

Other than being a shill for vista, what's your issue here catalyst? It's already been stated that vista is no help for AH, you have not tried it with AH or are unwilling to so far. I can't figure out why you are trying to sell it so hard here in an arena it has no real use.

Your thread has NO BEARING at all.   Why'd you post in the Aces High forum?  You haven't run AH2 on it.  

I'm sorry but I'm with Skuzzy on this.   Vista is a POS.   I'll be in competition with Skuzzy and other's on "who can hold out the longest."  

But, you shouldn't have posted ANYTHING until you had installed AH.   You knew that question would be answered and tried to skip over it, then when asked again, you tap danced.   See a pattern here?   We do.

If you haven't shot yourself by now, you may as well just ante up for the long haul.

The only way to get ASIO support is to do the XP to Vista upgrade and already have the ASIO drivers installed for XP.

None of the Audiophile sound cards will run under the native versions of Vista as Audiophile depended on either ASIO or DX Sound.  Creative Labs is having a terrible time.  EAX is dead in Vista.  And Creative cannot get thier drivers to run well at all under Vista.  This is per Creative Labs.

None of the DirectX Sound filter plug-ins for the high end audio packages will work under Vista either.

These are not bugs.  These are design features of the OS.  MS's TechNet forums are covered with things like this.

EDIT:  You have DRM issues, you just do have run into them yet.  Wait until you try to copy any HD content which has been flagged as copy protected.

Saying that Vista is all peachy-keen is just wrong.  The last thing anyone needs is to be misinformed about this.
