| | Re: Will Nvidia GeForce 7950 GX2 Work Great with Windows Vista Ultimate A very small amount of defective cards actually made it to the consumer. Most cards where returned before they where sold.

| | Re: Will Nvidia GeForce 7950 GX2 Work Great with Windows Vista Ultimate Right now the nVidia drivers don't fully support the 7950 GX2. Since the card is multiGPU the drivers only enable 1 of the GPUs and only 512mb of the memory. Otherwise for the short time that I had it running under Vista it worked quite well. Now a proud owner of a 8800GTS with REAL (but leaked) Vista drivers. Finally my 30in Dell is at 2560 res and Aero Glass is wonderful again.

| | Re: Will Nvidia GeForce 7950 GX2 Work Great with Windows Vista Ultimate Never mind. Took a while but I found them. 100.30. However, at a very small 15MB I don't have much faith. At least I have a decent widescreen resolution now. "Justin" <None@None.com> wrote in message news:u#ghohcOHHA.1248@TK2MSFTNGP03.phx.gbl... > WHAT!?!?! You have 8800 drivers that work?
