    Most likely GeForce 8800 users. I've tested the GeForce 7600 with Vista and it works.. Not as fast as I would expect, and lacks some features, but the NVIDIA Vista RTM driver seems useable. :think:

    Recent tests have shown that ATI is making much better Vista driver than Nvidia too.

    I have one of the worse combination of drivers...

    Nvidia Drivers + Logitech Camera Drivers = unstable M1210 :p

    No but it's certainly not helping...when doing damage control, it's better for companies to be open and transparent with their customers :p

    i agree with a lawsuit.

    i just plunked down $400 for a 8800gts 640mb card and it runs like crap compared to my 7800gt sli setup. the drivers suck the bigone. after spending this kind of money on something that has not had a decent driver since it came out 4 months ago just sucks. i wish i could get my money back but it is exchange only.

    Ya lar. I also wanna join the class action suit. Until now they haven't sorted out the "fog problem" in all games using the Source engine. That's the worst thing coz it affects my favorite game Counter Strike Source. :cry:
