wow thanks! previously using other beta drivers but not really good coz made my xfx7600gtxxx's fan spins at full speed all the time.. donknow this official and final version works o not.

That's not OEM pricing, neither that's pricing in Malaysia...so this is not what I'm looking for...

only show you the price differences xD

XD saw that some time back.

Now deciding whether to get Home Premium OEM or Retail

Guys, want to ask something, i tried to install nvidia vista driver on vista x86 rtm, but it cannot install. at the end of the installation, it shows no changes made to the system.

how to install this driver i download from nvidia,

try the international package and NOT the U.S pack.

thanks, it works. but actually one of the reason why i wanted to use the driver is that i want to use rivatuner and access the nvidia control panel to adjust the clock etc.

but i cannot get this working with vista, please see the screenshots.


so i still confused....

Turning Aero Off only helps if you are using integrated graphics cards,

If you are already using a discrete graphics card such as GF 7 series,
Turn on / off Aero won't see much difference.

How's the performance?
I heard some apps (eg. Photoshop...) run slower with readyboost.

Hi,

Have anyone successfully use the ASUS/Microsoft Upgradeweb? I can't seem to validate my COA number!

Yahoo To Preview Messenger For Windows Vista

Yahoo will give users a preview of what it will be like to use a new and improved version of Yahoo Messenger on Microsoft's Windows Vista at the 2007 International Consumer Electronics Show this year. Yahoo will show off an early version of Yahoo Messenger optimized for Vista, with new features that take advantage of some of the user interface enhancements Microsoft has added to the OS.

"It feels very much at home as though it's living and breathing in Windows Vista," said Joshua Jacobson, a Yahoo senior product manager, of the version of Messenger built for Vista. The company plans to release a beta of the application in the second quarter of 2007, and a final version should be available four to six weeks after that, pending feedback, he said.
