    ohnoes nvidia

    Look, I'm not one threatening class action lawsuits, etc. But I did follow all necessary steps to install Vista by the book and I don't care what anybody says, Vista does not work out of the box with an ATI AGP card and a dual core Athlon. I'm perfectly competent. You can bury your head in the...

    ohnoes nvidia

    I know I feel the same way. I'm sick of hearing people defending nVidia saying "well if you don't have SLI 8800s then you shouldn't be running vista OMFGZORS!!!!" etc etc. The reality is that dual core X2 systems with a good AGP card are more than adequate to run Vista, and nVidia screwed all of...

    ATi AGP + With nForce3 + Vista = Code 43 Error

    Here's a little bump from a furious nVidia user too. To all who boo hoo about nF3 users not upgrading to Vista: Are you fucking serious? People run XP with hardware a gen or two old all the time, it's not like some big travesty. The idea that my dual core system with a pretty fast AGP card...

    Vista and Nero 7 experiences

    I did it, Nero works well. WFP will keep your DX10 in place, don't worry.

    is there any vista driver for any motherboard yet?

    Amazing, you are running nVidia cards which are well known to work. It's the fact that non-nVidia cards (specifically ATI... nVidia's main competition) are completely crippled. Coincidence? I doubt it. Sure, it's not in their best interest to support the competition, but is it worth it to...

    Another Vista Victim

    Same printer, same problem. I got that message a bit ago too. Its okay by me though, HP has come out with new printers and this guy is fairly old for a printer... I can invest in a new printer. Annoying that there is no support, but mine really is quite old.

    Can Vista 32-bit OEM get 64-bit disk from Microsoft?

    Yes. I got a Vista Business license through the MSDNAA program and paid $9 for a 64bit DVD from the website regularly listed on product packaging: http://www.microsoft.com/windowsvista/1033/ordermedia/default.mspx

    is there any vista driver for any motherboard yet?

    Wow, nice; way to be an asshat. Yes, I have. http://www.nvidia.com/object/winvista_32bit_beta1.html Beta 1 drivers from 2005. Whoop de fucking do. They don't work. They wont work. If nVidia is going to keep pimping the board as vista ready they better get some drivers for it. You can...

    is there any vista driver for any motherboard yet?

    No need for chipset drivers huh? Care to explain why my nForce3 system is completely broken and my X800 can't start because the boxed chipset drivers are horrible? I can't even run Aero Glass because of nVidia's complacency and it's really getting old fast...

    Downloading Vista Business as I type....

    Ive been running Vista Business from the MSDNAA program for a few days now. It's been a champ. The only gripe I have is that nVidia has been completely sucking ass about drivers and my whole system crawls because the chipset drivers that ship with Vista are very flawed and AGP acceleration is...
