is tehre any possibility to run 2001 on vista 32???

yeah runs without problems for me. but it's way slower compared to a well tweaked win xp

i cannot run

it needs DX8

then it also wouldn't run on win xp since we are using directx 9.0c there.

the future dx version are backwards compatible

 

don't know what's wrong with your vista then.

ypu must have direct x9.0c,also you installating directx9.0c over 10.

Run in compabilitymode?

west

I run it without any problems and compatibility mode

vista32 SP1

i used directX web update

 

but agree with Turrican, it's WAY slower than XP.

The only limitation in running 3DMark01SE on Vista is the fact that you can only use one GPU. This is down to the fact that nVidia's and AMD's drivers only allow for multiple GPU's to be used on DirectX 9 and 10 applications. As 3DMark01SE uses DirectX 8.1 only one GPU can be used effectively. Enableing SLi or Crossfire can actually lower your score when using Vista.
