What sort of video card do you have? How much RAM does your machine have?

You're probably low on RAM - Constructor can eat quite a bit of system and video RAM, and so can Vista/Win7 -- and you have 1GB that is shared for all of them. If possible, I would recommend upgrading your box to 2GB, and also going in and making sure you have plenty of swap space -- a 4GB dedicated swap file at least.

Torque constructor was installed on windows Vista before the upgrade to windows 7. It worked completely fine on vista.
