Default Re: Problems using external computer as MIDI synth

Yep, unfortunately. I had a lot of apprehensions going to Vista, and they have all turned out to be well justified. Just in case someone else is thinking about "upgrading" from XP to Vista, take my advice: FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THAT IS HOLY AND GOOD DON'T!!!
Vista is truly appalling in terms of resource usage, just the OS uses 600-800 MB of RAM even when you switch off most of the UI "features". Many audio cards also have problems with the drivers.
There are some nice new features, like being able to schedule defragmentation and other stuff, but it doesn't make up for the bad stuff. Oh well...
