Video Card Question

When I downloaded the latest viewer I got a message that my video card does not meet the minimum requirements, but it's NVIDIA GeForce Go 7950 GTX (with the latest driver).

I'm assuming it's just a mistake, since SL works just fine for me, but it occurs to me to wonder: is the card somehow not optimized (not sure of the correct word here) so the SL client misread my system configuration?

Thanks for your thoughts.

I'm not clever enough to answer you but I have the 7900 Nvidia and my prompt from SL was to go to the Nvidia web site and get latest Driver which I did.
No harm for you to do same.

i got the same message and went in to see how bad it would run for me and it runs fine..half of the warnings that show up are hard to take serious from sl because it's never the same one twice
