I wonder how much the Graphics drivers influence that result. Anyone know? Yeah, it does. I know this because of my laptop, again. It is using ATI Radeon Xpress 1150, but Vista recognizes it as a Radeon Xpress 200M card. Before I install the correct driver, I get the score of 2.4 for Graphics Performance. After the driver installation, I get 2.1.

i think the dreams downscale to the lowest resolution available on the monitors...so it will display on the same resolution on the second monitor as it does on the lowest-res monitor. when the dream is displayed on the highest-res monitor, it is shown in the low resolution and seems squashed, this is probably due to that one of each of your monitors are widescreen while the second ones are standard resolution. thats just my guess.

Why does the Vista version of the WB config have the pretty task pane but the XP one has the dull boring luna-style blue one? I was wondering this myself when I installed WB on Vista...

It's kinda obvious, because the icons on both are not similar...XP-like icons on the left and Vista icons on the right... Also, noticeably, the taskbar isn't transparent on the XP shot (left). And finally, the glass streaks on the titlebars aren't as numerous as the ones in the left in RTM versions of Vista (just look at the right screenhot for a reference) Change your icons, and you could have a pretty good emulation there!!! You also might want to try VAIO (look on j
