Anyone with a GeForce 8800 GTS under Vista 64-bit?

Hi

I know there are no specific 64-bit Vista drivers for the nVidia 8800
graphics card yet, but would like to know if anyone is using one of those
cards with the default drivers. Does it work, or the sysmtem behaves
poorly????

Thanks

Edric

The card works if you don't mind the resolution limitations. I have an
8800GTS with RC2 x64, unfortunately I have a widescreen monitor and there
isn't a widescreen resolution available for the VGA drivers that get
installed. If nVidia doesn't release a Vista (x64) driver for these on 1/30
I'm gonna be one unhappy puppy. There's rumors of an x86 driver that was
used recently at CES for demonstration purposes the last couple of days but
no mention of x64 drivers.
