I'll second that. SWX2008 + Vista Ultimate are faster overall.

With SWX2008 loaded with a small file open I'm using about 1.1G of physical
memory.

Anna,

Did these other people manage to get the service packs to install with
Solidworks 2007, ( not Vista)?

I have looked at previous posts and I can see no mention of them being tried
or tested.

As you stated things change, that is why I took the time to test Solidworks
2007 with Vista and the Dell.

Also this test was not done a year a go, but two weeks ago.

Quote 1, "You will be using software OpenGL = slow, even if you get a driver
working, it is still not very good."

May work for other people, again I have not seen any other posts, stating
that there were no issues were found.


Quote 2, "You can NOT install service packs as Vista is not recognized by
the Solidworks windows installer."

Again, no posts mentioning that they, were able to install service packs.

The original question was on Solidworks 2007, not 2007 Vista, so I can not
see why people would have an issue with my remarks.

Wonderman,

Thank you for your input.

I was going to wait also, but now someone with some intelligence has
contributed their findings, I shall try Solidworks 2008 in on a new vista
business system.
