Hi Yeah, I meant windows vista. Sorry about that.

Hi, When you say, you have Windows XP because you hate anything later than that, does this include Windows 7? Have you tried Windows 7? If so let us know why you hate it? If not how can you judge? I'm not trying to be sarcastic, rude,etc, but I just wanted to illustrate the point if you mean Windows Vista please be specific here. I've got the Windows 7 beta running on a notebook and I like it lots better than Windows Vista. Better security, a fully customizable user account control, improved system performance, a better driver database, etc are just some of the features you get when updating Vista to Windows 7. Oh, and the fact that Windows 7 is in beta, and is quite stable, means that Windows 7 is likely to be the next Windows XP for most users running newer systems. My advice for users is skip Vista and go Windows 7 when Windows 7 comes out. Constantine wrote: I've got reasonably well up to date.

Re: [Audyssey] Rail Racing for speed junkies. was:Re: Would youpay$50for a killer controller?
Hi Jim, Those versions of Rail Racer are very very old. I recommend updating to at least Rail Racer 1.5 before trying the game. I have 1.5 and it runs really well. In fact, I think Che has a newer release out, but I haven't yet got around to updating to it. As far as upgrading DirectX goes you have to if you ever want to play any games that use the .NET Framework. By default the .NET libraries for DirectX do not come with Windows XP or Vista so need to be installed indipendantly. Installing something like the DirectX 9.0C (June 2008) upgrade will do it.
