tsing, yeah it may not pick up other drives unless you point it in the right direction... use media player possibly? to add media to your library, then maybe the media centre will pick up on this? Im not 100% on this though, sorry.

Think I'm going to have a go at getting at least one of the versions I have of FFXI running on Vista now. Was going to create an XP partition but having been messing around with OS installs for the last day and a half I don't really feel like it, and given that my only copy of XP is 32 bit that might not work so well either.
Think I'll do the US version to start with; figuring out Vista support on the Japanese website could take a bit more linguistic graft than I'm up for right now!!

Got it all installed this afternoon and its working fine. Haven't done any mip tweaking or hacking yet, will have a look at that but the graphics already look good especially on the skies. PS2 controller works fine, I read one a forum that the manufacturer drivers don't work but that the Vista ones are ok. Just configure them in the FFXI settings. You'll have to dig around in the Program Files (x86) directory to find the config application as there are no shortcuts created for it in Vista POL.

Hey Jake, I've done the MIP and background hack - looks pretty cool. But how would I know if I'm putting too much on the graphics card (before it does it some damage). Not sure if its running slightly hotter with the mods or if its just my imagination - its an Radeon X1950XT in the HIS "super quiet" packaging (which rattles >.>)
Would slow screen updates/jumping give the game away?

Looks like its to do with not being fully paid up on my mules, as my Credit Card sometime ago expired, when I changed it I only activated my main character.
Need to contact customer support for it I think.
