Which version for Vista ?

I am about to order SW2007 and cant figure out whether SP 3.0 will run on it
or the Vista version. It appears as if the collective thought is to wait
but we are looking at the inevitable transtition and want to make the right
choice. TIA.

 

Thanks. With Vista Ultimate we got a 64 bit disk and the machine in
question is 64 bit capable so we arent tha far off. I wanted to get SW in
house for transition purposes.

I wonder if 2007 SP 3.0 will run 32 bit for the time being or should I wait
for the first SW Vista release ?

 

Just curious, but why are you going to Vista? and why 64bit?

 

ur new desktop came with Vista Ultimate32 and a 64 upgrade disk too. The
machine is 64 bit as well so I am looking forward and trying tomake use of
what we have versus uninstall and reformat the machine and go and buy XP.

 

Might be cheaper in the long run to do just that. From what I have
heard, the performance hit is pretty substantial for Vista.

 

Vista currently has very limited driver set. Where this hurts
SolidWorks users is if you can't get a driver for your workstation
grade VideoCard you will be working in OpenGL which has an added
performance hit.

 

Can anyone advise if SP 3.0 will runin Vista 32 ?

 

Remember the movie Transporter?

Rule Number One
Never install the latest release of any software unless you are beta
testing. Wait at least three service packs and preferably till the
next release.

Rule Number Two
Never buy hardware without first checking if it will run the software.
Beware the bundle.

Rule Number Three
The save button likes to be spanked.

Rule Number Four
Turn off all the eye candy, don't load that screen saver, shut down
any unneeded services, defrag your hard drive, always go for the
fastest CPU, max. memory, approved video drivers, and you don't need
to listen to MP3s on your computer while working.

Rule Number Five
Always check first on comp.cad.solidworks to see if somebody else has
made the dumb mistake you are about to make. They probably have.
