I'm pretty certain that was the one I used when I was playing with the same idea out of curiosity a while back. If it is the one then it worked ok. Ok but not great, relatively stable and didnt' take up too much CPU & RAM (though probably more than similar functions would in "native Vista"). If I recall correctly, too much tinkering resulted in something of a Vista/XP hybrid as I ended up with an XP start bar but Vista gubbins.

It lasted a few hours on my main PC. Vista itself lasted a few months on the same PC before I gave up in frustration and reverted to XP...
Cool, lets see if anyone else has used that one

Personally I find Vista a bit of a struggle compared to XP, but one must try and move forward young YC!!

Besides, I am not about to buy another XP licence if I have Vista one am I
