Shortly after Microsoft released Vista Beta 2, the big hardware vendors released updated drivers for the general public to install on their test machines. NVidia has released nForce drivers (nForce 4 or greater) and Forceware drivers for their chipsets/video cards and ATI has just posted updated Catalyst drivers for their Radeon products.
Screenshot/video galleries are starting to hit the web as well:
- Paul Thurrott has his preliminary Beta 2 review up along with a bunch of images
- PCMag has a nice collection of screenshots on their site
- CNet has a senior editor playing around with Beta 2 in a short video
- eWeek has great coverage on first day WinHEC happenings
"Vista seems a little more responsive and stable from 5381. Nothing really different from that build but if you"ve been waiting to run Vista on your main machine then you may want to wait a little longer until RC0, as this release still isn"t at the stage where you could rely on it every day, especially on a mid-range PC."
