The answer is yes. I installed Vista with no problem and switched the resolution to 2560*1600 even before running Windows Update. I created a backup using the built-in backup tool and tested the recovery.
Applications I had a problem with:
- Paragon Disk Manager: does not work with Vista.
- Fable, the lost chapters: stops responding (issue with Nvidia driver).
- Skype Recorder: causes Skype to crash every time you start a call.
- Burning CDs from Windows: it takes ages to burn a CD and it the end it doesn't work (I have an LG Dual layer).
- Sony Soundforge Audio Studio 7.0: can't open files via drag and drop any more
- Media Center: takes 10 seconds to switch from/to full screen. The display driver crashes sometimes. Suspect this is due to the beta version of the NVIDIA Vista driver.
No issue with:
- Office 2003
- Sid Meier's Civilization IV
- SoundForge 7.0b
- Skype
- Norton Internet Security 2007: a free update is available for Vista
- Cambridge English Dictionary
- Google Earth
