Is anyone able to run this combination?
Is it true that the current Vista RC1 ATI drivers don't include Open GL? I am running Vista as a second OS just to see if it is OK, and a few things about XP are making me want to use it more, like key stickyness. I am getting tired of turning full circles when I don't want too  |

Yakumo, I believe some Lindens have run Vista pre-releases, not in the same combination as you mention. Earlier:
/111/cc/108571/1.html#post1053254 As it's not fully out yet, we haven't formally approved it for use with Second Life. If it works for you in the meantime, then great. I haven't tried it myself but as experiences can widely vary, I'm going to move this to Technical Issues for more insights from fellow Residents. _____________________

Install Catalyst 6.8 under Vista, but first set your graphic card to "VGA Standard".
SL will run, but you will lose Aero. G. |

go to device manager -> update driver on graphic card -> select manual driver selection and from there chose "VGA Generic" or "VGA Standard"
