Thanks Ant. Nice Vid. Do you have all the remaining boxes checked? I will try some before and after Passmark composite tests pretty soon and get back to you guys.

Thanks Znod looking foward to seeing the results, for the demonstration of that video i just turned that one effect off but usually i turn some others off like fade effects and animation. I keep the good stuff on like Transparency and Themes that way vista still looks the same.
