I read UMD tools do not work and if i would want to install Vista i would want 64bit and the suport on 64 bit is even more lacky..

UMD Tools is... yeah.. won't work on Vista.
64 bit Vista shouldn't be much less compatible than 32 bit.  Use a 32 bit explorer on Vista x64, and you shouldn't have any issues, in general.

Video codes will work fine.  So drivers would be your only issue.  But most drivers should be working.  nVidia had 64 bit drivers for a _long_ time.  Dunno about ATI.  Not too sure when Creative came out with 64 bit drivers for SoundBlaster.  For integrated sound, the motherboard should really come with 64 bit drivers.

Vegetano1 Wrote:I do not know what the problem is, Vista using to many ram, if you have 2 gig ram that is plenty enough or not!?

2GB is enough.  1GB is enough if you don't use much RAM, or are using vLite.
512MB - would not recommend.
