Windows Vista
Computers with Windows Vista may have occasional incompatibilities between Vista and other hardware devices. Often these incompatibilities get resolved when the manufacturer updates its product. This process can take a half year or more, so if you rely heavily on hardware that you plan to use with Vista, check the manufacturer's web site for Vista compatibility.

Faculty and staff who use Banner should note that Banner is not certified to run on Vista. Customers should plan to run Windows XP to insure that Banner works correctly.
