Andre Posted July 28, 2005 Share Posted July 28, 2005 Could anyone post a screenshot of a maximized window (ie Windows Explorer) in Vista, please? I am curious about how it looks that way considering in normal mode it has all those transparent edges and titlebar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toledo64fx Posted July 28, 2005 Share Posted July 28, 2005 No way! The least I'll recommend is 8GBs 586282083[/snapback] I'm ok ... 300 GB :) but i don't have any subscription with MS :cry: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

musicroom Posted July 28, 2005 Share Posted July 28, 2005 Hi, Well I have been invited by Microsoft to download and test Vista Beta 1, but I am a bit worried, I use my computer for MS Office, World of Warcraft ... etc. So will all this program still be compatible if i install windows vista beta 1? I imagine that the answer is yes , but I just want to be 100% sure, before I make a fool of myself .. :wacko: Thanks for the response !

Many of them. If you want, Ill post the list of the nVidia cards supported that MS provided (6000 series cards). Also, I have a 6800 card, and I am doing just fine. Your card must be broken. Oh, and if you have the x64 Version installed, there is a list for them too. As well as a new driver out from nVidia that should work just fine for you.

dougal.s Posted July 28, 2005 Share Posted July 28, 2005 How on earth did you get invited? 586286636[/snapback] None of your business I shouldn't think!! It isn't our place to question how/if people got invited. Musicroom: The whole idea of the Beta is to find out what is and isn't compatible. if you have a spare drive install Vista on that. It is never really recommended to use a Beta OS as you main OS, unless you find it very stable and compatible with existing applications. Dougal.

musicroom Posted July 28, 2005 Share Posted July 28, 2005 Ah ... ok thanks Dougal.S I got invited because I've been on the beta program for like 5 years ... always helpfull, but I have my doubts when using new OS ... Musicroom :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lardiop Veteran Posted July 28, 2005 Veteran Share Posted July 28, 2005 Few questions for everyone who has it installed. Interested in knowing the following: 1) Has anyone tried recent games (Half Life 2, Doom III Battlefield 2) and if so do they run fine? 2) Has anyone been able to get DLink Wireless cards working with it? 3) Are you using it as your primary OS, why or why not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dasgooch Posted July 28, 2005 Share Posted July 28, 2005 "Install Supplemental Drivers"Didnt it start on the first boot ? ;) D:\Windows\System32\DPUpdate.exe -findSource Run it... It should install the marvell drivers. 586286436[/snapback] I successfully installed Vista on my Silicon Image Raid 0 setup with no problems. It will not let you load the driver from Windows Setup but if you boot from the disk you can load a third party driver from floppy or CD/DVD.
