You probably have to take into account that it's running under Vista, I'm sure under XP you'll see a good 15% increase in performance, minus the DX10, of course, but check out the DX9 to DX10 comparisons, there is a difference, but still looks amazing in DX9.
As long as you have a DX9 card, you should play this in XP
i have keys that will work...i also got it activated.
Those are the easy parts to get past through....
the part i cant get past is entering or mounting a cd after the activation.
i still haven't decided between crysis, Unreal Tournement 3 (or w/e the new one is), and CoD4,
I know crysis has the best graphics but i'm more of a 75% gameplay 25% graphics kind of guy
