Registry Patches - Vista + PDMLink + ProENGINEER

All,

Sorry for cross post to SysAdmin and the WGM lists.

Unless I am mistaken, there does not seem to be a list of recommended patches
for Windows Vista to optimize the performance of Pro/ENGINEER with PDMLink 9.1 m10.

The following document references XP only and does not seem to have been updated in over a year.

- Question 1 -
Is there a recommended list of patches for Vista for PDMLink that I have overlooked?

- Question 2 -
For those of you using Vista with PDMLink 9.1 (patched or unpatched), how does the performance
compare versus a patched Windows XP?


Thanks in advance!

Well, for all you proe users, Windows 7 works for all versions of pro/engineer from 2.0-5.0 and RSD Designer 7.0 works in Windows 7 build 7110. Use Driver Robot to download all the drivers you need to upgrade your desktop or laptop computer.
It has better networking, bluetooth, graphics, libraries now as evolved network shortcuts. I am still beta testing it and loadin software to try to make it crash on one of my systems. This is Vista finished and retooled. Too bad we have pay for software that has finally been finished. I recommend Windows 7 x64 for all computers running Pro/Engineer with 4-8 gigs of ram. Dump Vista, I have had troubles with x86 and x64 Vista till it finally crashed and corrupted its own file registry. I also recommend AVG for Anti-Virus, Ccleaner and Spybot.
