Vista Driver Support

I know it might be a pretty big task, but it would be nice to know what hardware (drivers for) Vista is supporting right now and what it doesn't. Maybe someone could start a sticky along those lines. Myself, I'd like to know if Vista has any driver support for the D-Link DWL-G520. I'm also using the D-Link DI-624M wireless router. But I won't need any drivers I think.

This may be a good idea, but at this point even Microsoft is not sure what is supported.

I would wait on RTM and for Microsoft to release the HCL for Vista as making any lists for beta software would probably wind up being a waste of time.

Using the example of my UMAX Scanner, even some of the manufacturers aren't sure yet whether they're going to develop drivers for Vista.

So, yes, it does seem it would be a waste of time and effort at the moment to try to compile any list of supported hardware.
