[BLACKBOX] floating point in Vista

Hello BlackBox World,
 
  I am getting strange reports that my simulation software BUGS is behaving strangely on Windows Vista.
There are also quite a few web pages (particulary involving Delphi software) where floating point
problems are reported. One suggestion is that the floating point control word is set differently on Vista
and that this affects how two floating point numbers are compared. Have any BlackBox users noticed
strange behavoir with floating point calculations under Vista?
 
Best regards
 
Andrew Thomas
