Does anyone have the Dirt demo for xp or vista? I am running it in vista, and i know a guy running it in xp, and the only way we can run it is if we turn everything to the absolute minimum. Otherwise it runs at about 5fps max. I was just wondering if anyone as it and got it to run smoothly. I was kinda surprised my friends dell with 512mb of ram ran it just as well as mine, except for the fact that one race always freezes on his computer.:apple:

Looks like the game is buggy. Some suggest turning sound to software mode.
