A few questions and concerns about Vista.
Friday, January 12, 2007 by moderndystopia | Discussion: Personal Computing
I just ordered my free upgrade to Windows Vista Premium through Dell (I have an XPS 2010) and the only concern I have with installing Vista is software compatability. Now, I'm a big PC gamer and I want my currents games that work just fine on XP to work on Vista. Is this something I need to be worried about?
Also, I use programs like Soulseek, et al. Should I worry about non-gaming software compatability as well?

Thanks!
And for those of you that had the same question as me, I did some searching on the web and found this: http://www.iexbeta.com/wiki/index.php/Windows_Vista_Software_Compatibility_List#Heavy_problems.2C_currently_incompatible
It's an up to date list of all software that is known to work AND not work with Vista. It's a wiki, so it's updated constantly.
