I'm glad it worked. The floating point issues are rather common with 
borland compilers. Microsoft masks almost all fp excpetions by default 
and that is why most of things just work with their compiler.
To be on the safe side you should just do the same.

You can try but I think in this case it is probably vista related problem.
