Not only does it work fine but it works considderably faster than XP did on the same system. I have found that Vista basic on my single core laptop only just works ok, it used to be horrific when I only had 512MB but now ive got 2GB its better, though if I'm honest I think dual core should be a requirement for vista. Unless Im wrong and its just my laptop that suffers?
By the way how do you get 3GB in dual channel? Sureley thats 3 1GB sticks in single channel? I thought you needed pairs of sticks to run dual channel?

Yes you are correct on the memory i should have said 2 gig dual however i have just upgraded to 3 gig which at the moment has put me back to single channel. I have run Vista on another machine as well and i saw a marked speed reduction on that machine as well i also have bench marks somewhere that showed the marked reduction in speed from Xp to vista. I have a few machines here at the moment and the linux machine running Ubuntu is the one i prefer to do my general surfing on due to its speed.
