hello
i was wondering if i upgrade my pc from xp proffesional to windows vista
would programes, files and games that run ok now on my 32-bit xp profisional
run ok on windows vista ?
or i would have to wait for patches and upgrades from their manufactring
companies like what happend to me when i upgraded from win98 to win xp which
made me lose lots of files and programes at the time ?

Check your software's compatibility with the:
Microsoft Application Compatibility Toolkit 5.0
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/w.../aa905072.aspx

That will best answer your questions as to compatibility. As to when
patches/updates will be forthcoming to address compat issues, quien
sabe ?
