Thats what I would do.  And if you have to use an older operating system stay with XP.  Fix it once and fix it right.   :cheers:

Vista is not so bad now that they've patched it. you can burn your own legit install disk. Seems like less work...

I'm using it on my stand-up cab because of DirectX11 support.
Once you turn off all the user account control garbage, the only downside is that bootup cannot be completely hidden.
At least I haven't been able to hide it.  I can make the boot screen look like whatever I want, but it still shows the windows logo after it.

Thanks Knave,

I was unaware that I can burn my own install for vista. Can you point me in the right direction?

I bought a brand new XP Pro 64-bit (good for 3 computers) that has never been installed or used. My plan was to dual boot my new speedy desktop that came with Win 8 pre installed, but I have everything I want working perfectly in Win 8 so I don't need it anymore. If anyone is interested in buying it PM me.
