OpenGL under Vista is in pretty bad shape. Nvidia and ATI are going to have to completely build their own direct OpenGL platform if they want to avoid having to run it in a DirectX wrapper.

vista is still in its first leg, dont rush into it just yet, wait a few months for things to get standardized so you guys wont have to worry about not getting the right support or drivers.

My frame rates drop by 12 fps with Vista, oh well i hope they work hard on drivers, and don't ONLY focus on the 8800, which would really "P" me off, not everyone can afford a 600 dollar video card.

I am having issues running games. Rainbow 6 and Riddick won't run. I'm also getting half the frames I normally do on WoW. Pretty pathetic concidering the time NV has had to develope for Vista. I'm hoping to see some improvements with this months driver release.

I don't understand the R6...it and anything else I play (including HL2)on Vista has no problems. Are you using 100.59?
Edit: 100.64 available on Nvidia's site now |
