silent hunter4 and vista

I had it running on a pre-release version of Vista but it was really a dog. Pretty sure it's mostly hardware driver issues. Also, if you're running Vista, automatically add 512 RAM to your game requirements. The OS is a memory hog. Buy memory now as the price is sure to go up due to new and future "minimum" requirements...

Watch for driver updates Lt.

Breaks 90% of Games says game developer:

Conclusion, same as before, avoid it for a while and see if things improve.
