    This video does not use the Aero Glass interface, and doesnt go over every feature or anything, but oh well. The first video covers the install, the second is part install part using Windows Vista, and the third is a few other things in Vista. Enjoy!

    its because i was using VMware which doesnt recognise more t han 16mb of video memory in its video driver. There apparently is an experimental 3D mode with the program but i did not use it as the driver is very buggy.

    So can you install Vista 64 without the need for a previous OS-64 bit like XP PRO? Like when you are building a new computer with nothing in the hard drive?

    most systems come with a copy of some operating system installed on them, but as long as you set your BIOS of your system up to look for a boot image on the cd/dvd or bootable floppy drive before looking on the hard disk, you can install an operating system onto it from scratch, or over top of an existing one (which you need to be careful about, it will overwrite pretty much everything when it does this usually).

    I’ve never tried, I don’t see a setting for it though. Apple does claim to support Intel/PC architecture now though, so in theory it should work. You might have to try fiddling with the preset OS type it prepares the guest image for, i.e. try the linux/other settings, etc. I doubt that you will have no issues with trying this, but good luck.

    6GB of RAM on Vista 32 bit is complete waste, since the OS will only be able to use about half of it…

    any processor with the phrase “core 2″ in it will work with any of the Vista x64 editions, or even the rare Windows XP x64 edition, so long as you meet the other requirements.
