    im using them with vista... so i guess thats a yes...

    of course, im having some problems actually modding the game itself but i dont know if thats relted to vista or not...

    but if youre just gonna play it and not actually make your own mods it should work just fine... im using several submods for SS 6.1 and dont have an problems so far..
    addicted modder... but crap at it

    Vista can cause some problems not with running the mod, but when you want to change it. This is because vista stores some "compatibility files" elsewhere outside of the mod's directory structure. But once you realise this, you can overcome the problem

    Not sure because I don't use Vista. Do a search on the forums for "compatibility files" and I'm sure you'll find something.

    DDR3? Sweet. Isn't PC-1600 DDR, though? What you're probably trying to say is DDR3-1600, which is PC3-12800.
