"Well... what can I say... " you could say if your setup did perform well in SL. Remember that Vista has only been officially supported for about one week, although in my months of using Vista for SL I never received such a warning dialogue.

so... I don't understand why Crysis works fine and other games as well... VWR-3401.

Downgraded to major rather than show stopper. As I understand it Vista users may be seeing a warning dialogue box on login. That doesn't actually prevent you using SL though does it? Please feel free to re-prioritise if I misunderstood and this does actually stop you logging in.
If it really is just an unwanted notification box, this should be "normal" priority.

It was only one warning message after the software installation. I am able to login etc... no problems with that. No problem with the priority.

I am going to close this issue. New version of WindLight First Look looks like supprt new ATI cards family.
