I don't have any problems with any games I try to use here.

If you post some names we could advise further.

I built my computer to run Vista X64 version. I have installed more games and game demos than most people around. The only game problems I have ran into is because of the X64 version.

A lot of people are having problems with Vista but for some reason I have not had even 1 problem. I run a Intel core 2 quad with a Gigabyte Mobo with 8 gig of high speed ram.

My computer is rated at 5.8 by microsoft Vista X64. I think that the reason people are having problems with Vista is becasue there computers are barely rated enough to run Vista.

I have a friend that says Vista is very bad. He wanted to know why call of duty 4 was running so bad on vista. I checked his system out and he had a AMD duel core 4800. That was great but he only had a 256 ram video card. That was the reason, Not Vista.

I run call of duty 4 in directx 10 mode because I have a EVGA 8800 gts super over clocked from the factory with DDR2 with 640 of ram onboard. Don't blame problems on Vista when your other computer hardware is the problem.
