Re: Would this system work with Vista

A driver cannot break hardware - a power surge or you dribbling into it can
however. Drivers are software only, and are likely to never actually go near
the hardware itself.

Re: Would this system work with Vista

I personally think that you Illegally Downloaded Builds 5342, 5365, and
5381, because, I certainly would not want someone like you in my Beta! Got
any Proof that you are actually in the Beta?

Well smarty-pants, I hope you had the brains to RMA the card right?
Oh, btw, software will not break a video card. Only a penciled neck geek
or a New Orleans pimp would say something as stupid as that.

Re: Would this system work with Vista

Again, what right do you have to ask for this information? You do not work
for Microsoft and you opted out of the beta program. Also, it could be
under NDA for him to show you any proof that he is part of the beta program.
So, stop asking users about this. You can be very ANNOYING!!!!!

Re: Would this system work with Vista

Stopping a device from working is entirely different to the device actually
