As some of you know, I've been stuck with MS Vista on my laptop until I get a new hard drive to get my *nix on, sorry, this is probably too geeky for you guys...
Anyway! Autodesk claim that 3Ds Max will not work with Vista, and the interwebs are full of people complaining about this and trying to fix it etc, but for some reason I managed to install and run it today. So I just thought I'd say, don't be put off by the rumours, if you run Vista, it may still be possible. I'm using Vista Home Premium and 3Ds Max 9.0.
There is a dll/memory error on load, but it seems to work fine apart from that. I'd recommend changing graphics mode to OpenGL if using 9.0, as its better, and previous version had it set as default. I don't know why they changed it to Direct3D/DirectX by default, but its fucking glitchy on my laptop.
