Windows MBReview.com reviewed Windows Vista, and concluded: "Overall, my first impressions of Vista, and specifically Vista Ultimate, are quite good. I had few problems moving over hardware and software, other than issues of driver support by manufacturers. This is an extremely annoying issue and I'm sure I'm not alone in my distaste for such lack of driver support. The new Aero interface is gorgeous and is one of the big reasons I have moved over to Vista on my main system. It has it's quirks like anything, but it is a big improvement from WindowsXP. Thus far, I'm impressed."

"I don't blame Microsoft for Nvidia's laziness."

I love that one, brings a smile to my face. Luckily for me Nvidia isn't lazy on Linux 64bit drivers and they work really well.

I think there are more issues here than just lazy driver writing by both ATI and Nvidia, don't you? The SATA drivers on Vista are a pile of crap as well which has made me stay clear of Vista with a barge pole.

He is probably get another complaing N-Force owner with a buggy as buggery chipset that ends up castrating the chipset speed to an attrocious 16mbps IIRC.

Again, if the chap wants someone to blame; blame Nvidia and their slow response to releaseing drivers for Windows Vista.

For me, I have SATA goodness no worries, and mine is just a standard Intel chipset - nothing fancy.
