[QUOTE="gloomyandy, post: 284589, member: 24855"] Well for over 2 years I've been running MP on XP. Was very happy with the result (But it was a bit of a pain to get working). I've just built a new system and decided to go with Vista. I'm just as happy (perhaps more so). My (new) hardware is fully supported with Vista (not sure if my graphics card an ATI 3450 card is fully supported in XP). With Vista I did not have to go through the (rather painful) problem of installing the various "special" patches to get multiple DVB-T cards running (nor the pain of getting a driver for my MS remote and keyboard). So far I've got stunning Freesat based HD and full hardware acceleration for virtually all of the formats I use. The only downside is that I've not been able to get suspend/resume working with my setup. But then I wasn't able to get it to work with XP either! So for me Vista has been fine (actually I would say less hassle than XP). Hope this helps Andy [/QUOTE]
