Vista Drivers 8800 32 and 64

According to a MS tech that knows someone at nvidia he told me a vista driver for RC1 and RC2 32 and 64 will be release between 18 and 23 of December 2006, They already have devoleped it and it was going to be released 4 Dec but their were some clocking problems and they are re-tweaking. He also said in direct 10 testing with flight sim X it was unbelievable. I am a flight sim fan and can't wait. By the way I paid 699.00 for my card 8800GTX so I hope I got what I paid for. If anyone hears anything different please let me know and I will tell you what I know. Thank You Jaye

Virus never take "I heard from a guy that heard from another guy" stories too seriously

I don't know the difference between beta and released vista all I know is that what he told me. From what I understand is that he said they would provide a driver that will work on the 8800 GTS/GTX 32 and 64 so people can use the cards before the final release on 31 Jan 2007. Thats all I know right now.

Virus I love your computer icon. Since you know what's going on. If the 8800 gtx driver is in final vista and it has been released why hasn't someone that owns one uploaded the driver yet. According to the guy I talked to he said that the 8800 driver was not released in final version because nvidia did not want to release it because of tweaks they had to do. Have you heard anything to that rumor?

there is no Vista driver being released anytime soon. The Vista drivers will be released closer to the release date of the operating system, which is late January.
