Default NVIDIA: "We Underestimated Necessary Resources for Vista Driver Development"

It is not the drivers that suck. It is Vista that sucks.
I had more luck trying to run OS2 on the woefully underpowered 486
computers of that day than I have running Vista now.
Vista is the worst product every issued by Microsoft, an unbelievable
fiasco.


what a turd you are...your best bet is to put your machine in the bin as you
have no idea how to use it

OK Scotty, here's an unbiased view from someone who has Vista Ultimate
and thought it was the dogs danglies until last night.

I've just installed XP on a Althon XP1500 system with 512MB RAM and a 6
year old 40GB HDD and chucked in all the software I normally do
(CODECS, Media players, Office etc) plus several 3D shooters. All in
all, the installation with apps is 34GB.

It boots faster than my Vista installation and it opens apps faster
than my Vista installation. All in all it feels far faster than my
Vista box save the 3D gaming which would be the case as it's only got a
GF4MX card in.

My Vista system?

AMD64 X2 4800, 2GB RAM, 2 SATA2 drives running RAID.
