So you can just use that one for a little while until Microsoft Certifies the Nvidia drivers. At least you are still able to run Vista.

Or you could just drop back to XP for a while until it all gets sorted out...

They still suck - OpenGL apps are a waste in Vista - simply forget it for a year - D3D9 only apps are also a waste

TRUST.

Man, I would not wanna give up the Quake / Doom engine games just to run Vista.

I'll be gamin' on XP happily. Maybe MS, Nvidia and ATI will eventually get it worked out. What a nightmare. I would have thought after all that time, it would not have been such a harsh gaming experience.
