| My Geforce Fx 5200 64MB can barely handle the visual styles. Anyone know what MS recommends be used for a video card? I thought I heard at leaste 256MB.

| Thats a nice card. I thin the compatibility issues are suppose to be fixed before release or maby even Beta 2.

| | Modified Radeon X600 256MB The drivers that it installed itself worked fine for any games and my normal settings, but on smaller resolutions and loading screens the graphics would distort. Only once when i had tied to install a program did it(the program) not appear at all and my screen distorted.

| Sapphire Radeon X700PRO 256MB PCIe w/DVI/TV-OUT.
I dought your problem is the card with the Vista visuals. If you got a 64-bit processor and tried vista 64bit edition then I'm sure you'd be fine. But I recommend ATI's Radeons over nvidia right now.. who knows how nvidia will fare in the future. Mainly say go ATI because of prices fair better on ATI for the same thing. Kind of like Intel and AMD, I prefer AMD over Intel because AMD is cheaper and for the same price as an Intel you get an AMD thats better/faster and 64bit.
thats my 37cents. |

thats my 37cents.I agree ATI has been around longer, and intel has fallen behind. Their 64bit cpu sucks compared the AMD Ahtlon Xp 64

| | ATI RADEON 9550 128 MB VIVO Works great but a little bit slow.
 -=(The processor runs with smoke, because if smoke comes out, it stops working.)=- |

| ATI pretty much owns if you're going for 9000-9600 series VS GeForce 5000-5900. GeForce 5xxx series has some major issues in DX.
