Windows Vista Drivers from NVIDIA and ATI
 
Both NVIDIA and ATI Technologies, the two major video card developers, are providing drivers for the Microsoft Windows Vista operating system.

you will need vista compatible drivers for most of the hardware to work properly. it is in beta after all.

Are there any printer drivers available? I have a Canon Pixma IP5200R which is a wireless printer, can get it working via USB but not wireless.

Radeon All-in-Wonder 7200 Family Drivers
 
I was part of the Vista Beta program using Vista Ultimate and used the program for two months with no driver problems, i.e. no messages at startup that said the system couldn't find any drivers. Then I bought Vista Home Premium. and have been plagued with six missing drivers as follows:
Display\NTativxs35
Display\NTativtu35
Display\NTativrv35
Display\NTativra35
Display\NTativpd35
Display\NTativmd35
These file names are what show up under driver Details under Device Manager. They are either what is there but inadequate or what is missing.

No driver files for this subject AGP processor card are available from ATI, HP, or MIcrosoft.

I cannot locate driver files on either the Vista Ultimate disk or the Home Premium disk although I know they have to be there somewhere, but not with explicit file names.

I have three options:
1. Live with it and whatever Aero features I am seeing including some glassy effects and screen management features. This means everytime I reboot I have the irritation of disabling the six missing driver functions.

2. Find the missing drivers somewhere somehow.

3. Upgrade the Power Supply from 250 W to 500 W and buy a Vista ready AGP graphics processor.

I would appreciate advice on these issues as overheating might be an issue on #3 (besides
expense).

Thanks,

Ray Z.

I know what you mean... Now I'm a little more selective and try to find info' on the latest release before applying it because,as you say, they're not always an improvement. I find the forums at 3d.com helpfull in this respect...
