Re: nVidia Drivers

They are not new. The drivers came out on May 23rd and they are beta
drivers.

Re: nVidia Drivers

This are just (very) old drivers.
So, >nVidia has, officially, released Vista video card drivers on their

I had no problem installing them but the various bits that would normally
be an improvement over the default nv drivers are missing, so there really
isn't any point.
