It has more to do with the drivers, but yes it should work if you have ATI drivers installed.

ya my videocard works really fine since its vista capable already but im jw if vista would recognize the configuration of crossfire :/

I'm 99% positive it will. The only reason I dont say 100% is because I personally havent done it yet, or seen other rigs that have.

Single graphics card rigs should be enough. Just get a high performance single card and you should be ok, I can't justify the high cost of dual graphics card rigs.
