Hey guys, I am in a small problem. I recently got a new comp and do now wish to purchase Windows Xp for my OS, so I just went with VISTA RC1 until full release. But there are no drivers out there that I know of until now.

I checked out the Nvidia site and there are two options.

1. GeForce and TNT2
2. GeForce Go 7 Series

I have the NVIDIA GeForce 7900GTX is it okay if I d/load the #1 option? I have no clue and am hopeing to get better graphics and soon/ put my comp to the max. Now as Far as I know the GeForce Go 7 series sounds like a notebook graphics card as from what I read, but I am not sure

any help will be greatly appreciated!
-Nick

You didn't say you had a notebook, yes that's your drivers.
Close call!

oh sorry for the confusion I just read it myslef...few

I meant to say, I just bough a new computer and got everything but an Operating System, So I downloaded Vista RC1 ( so I do not have to pay for XP and then pay for Vista) but here is my delema, I have a Suped up comp but I am unable to put my graphics card to use ( I get crappy detail, because there are no drivers for the VISTA RC1 beta)

hope that cleared thing up

It did indeed 😀

Still, wouldn't it have been wiser to get the OEM XP and later on just the Vista Upgrade? I'm in two minds about this.
