Vista is installing all of the updates now. Gotta get the drivers for my Saitek X-52, then on to installing FSX and see what happens.
Hit that power button, nervous, one shot one kill!! Awesome!! As soon as Vista 64 installed it instantly recognized all 4 gigs of OCZ DDR2, the works. I am very pleased with myself right now!
Can't hardly wait to see how poorly this rig will run FSX

.
Thanks to everyone for their help and suggestions! A special thanks to Nick for all of your valuable tecnical insight!
I'm off to tinker now. Be back in awhile!
