Re: Would this system work with Vista

Windows Vista Beta 1 did not work very well with my Old ATI Radeon X300,
just FYI (on my older DELL Dimension 8400, it Destroyed the Graphics Card,
hopefully Beta 2 will not have that problem, as well).

Re: Would this system work with Vista

I would Personally Recommend a Video Card with at least 256 MB's of VRAM
(like my NVIDA GeForce 6800, for Example).

Re: Would this system work with Vista

P.S. Some Very Bad Things Happen in Windows Vista Beta 1 when you only have
128 MB's of VRAM, hopefully Beta 2 will not have those problems as well, but
I will never ever run Windows Vista Beta with only 128 MB's of VRAM ever
again.

Re: Would this system work with Vista

I think that is why they call it beta. Beta 2 has a lot of bug fixes in it
compared to 5308 that you used. I am confident that this video card will do
the job. At least until I purchase a new PC in January.
