I m runing Max on Vista now compleately safe. The drivers are moded 101.45, just right click on 3dsmax.exe & select to run in Windows XP SP2 compatibility mode & disable desktop composition (Aero). Now when u will run it, 3Ds Max will disable Aero & then even in DirectX Mode the viewport is just like XP

One thing which i really love. When working in Max in Windows XP & rendering, my PC used to crawl. The only thing I could do was to chat or browse website on firefox (due to low cpu usage but i had RAM to spare). However in Vista, I am even able to Watch a movie while rendering, nice multitasking.

Just for render tasks, I don't disable Aero. It's only when i m modeling something
