      At least 10 gigs, vista takes up at least 6.

              Whatever, it's up to you. I don't know why you would stop the dl, vista is really fun to play with.

                  so bf2 performance sucks? If I can find a spare hard drive I might still do it, but if the gaming performance sucks I might just pass.

                    Of course gaming performance sucks, it's a BETA os. It's not desgined for gaming yet, and all the drivers are beta too.

                      Anyone know of any good free partitioning programs? I want to make a partition on one of my HD's, the one with my games, and leave the one with XP+regular programs alone.

                        yea, really bad.

                        I got 2 fps:

                        AMD 64 3200+ @ 2.43Ghz
                        2 gigs of RAM
                        eVGA 7600 GT

                          my vista computer score: 1
                          my fps in bf2: 8!!!!! [on low]

                          pentium m @ 1.6ghz
                          512mb ram
                          Geforce fx 5200...

                          my computer reports my video card as only 32 mb, but i'm begining to suspect that there was an error in the bios and i actually have 128 (ran chaos theory like a dream!)

                            I heard someone got improved performance in BF2 with Vista. They went from low/emd settings to med settings with 2x AA. Isn't Windows 2000 pro a good OS? I heard it was stable and good for gaming.
