Has anyone been able to set up their MacBook Pro with Vista and get nVidia drivers to work on the box so that the 8600GT that is inside it can be used with the GPU2 client?

If so, would you mind sharing with me how you did it?

Thanks!
 
So I was finally able to figure it out.

After doing BootCamp and installing Windows Vista, I had to do all the updates, then I went to the nVision area of the LaptopVideo2Go website. I was able to download 177.35 drivers for the built in 8600GT, and just that alone is getting 1100PPD, once I get 3 frames of the SMP client, I should have doubled my PPD from the Mac OS X side.

On a side note, it sure would be neat if they could get a GPU client out for Linux & OS X!
