PCI graphics card for Vista?

Would a PCI graphics card (Nvidia GeForce 5200) allow Aero Glass to work in
Vista?

Cannot vouch for the 5200 - but the 5500 (256mb) works great!

It's included in the NVIDIA GPUs 'Windows Vista Ready' List on the NVIDIA
site so should work ok.

Re: PCI graphics card for Vista?

Since there are drivers for the 5200, then I would believe it should work.

RE: PCI graphics card for Vista?

I am using a test machine with an Nvidia 5200,an AMD1800XP and 1.5 GB Ram,
all on a 32 bit system, I am able to run the new MS flight Sim and "flip 3D"
and aero glass.Admittedly,it is not perfect ,but I am waiting for the release
of Vista,before I build a new machine.
