Nah...... get rid of Vista.

Just another thought
If you partition your hard drive and have a copy of Windows XP Install that first then Vista on a different partition you can Boot either one,
Windows supports multi boot systems you can even use other operating systems , as long as each one is on a different partition.And you install the oldest version first.

A couple of suggestions:

1) Keep the old computer for use with the railway

2) Buy a cheap laptop with XP and use that for the railway. It may be almost as cheap as replacing the Lenz?

just an idea reading the JMRI site it says about finding divers for mac and linux on the FTDI site (the people who make the usb chip) looking at what it supports and vista is listed so would recommend trying them FTDI (top one)

I can say: LI-USB with this driver works on Vista 64!
