Don't listen what people say... Vista is OK for regular desktop use... for gaming... lets say it's not ready.

You can play minesweeper and solitaire. :)

Apparently, both the ATi and WDM drivers are the same. The problem is a basic incompatibility between the ATi/nVidia drivers and dual-core CPUs. As a workaround, you can limit startup to one CPU with EasyBCD or VistaBootPro. Search for them with Google - they are easy to find.

VistaBootPro :)

Quote from their website: "A digital age deserves a digital leader..."

announcing a beta release (version 3.1 wow :P ) for a beta OS which hasn't hit the stores yet of a bloattool which needs .NET 2.0 for a task which can be done by manually opening boot.ini with Notepad :)

What about msconfig or F1 and let it search for boot.ini in case you need to recheck the parameters....
