List of Vista Supported Hardware & Software

[dasickninja]

There should be no compatibility error from what I see and also from checking the current drivers for each piece of hardware. Contact Microsoft or PM Exit2Dos for more help. This isn't a compatibility problem.

 

[nexusneko]

Thank you very much.

A PM to Exit2Dos, isn´t it?

Fine, I'm doing.

Ninja, how did you manage to get a belkin F5D7000 v3 to work? I've been trying solidly for days to get hold of a driver for it but all the ones off belkin website are rubbish.

Btw i'm using build 5600 if that helps.

Cheers

 

[exit2dos]

Apparently Belkin's drivers are 32-bit. Check this link:

The first half deals with x64 - scroll down to bugmenot1's post for Vista.

 

[dasickninja]

[exit2dos]

[dasickninja]

Can you see how Paint Shop Pro 9 works? I get an administrator error even when signed in as one - can't even start the installation.

 

[dasickninja]

Updated with amendments to software list. Thank you Abyss for the heads up.

P5W DH Deluxe, it's really not fully supported?? I ran RC2 on mine and things seemed to be working just great...was I missing something?

 

[dasickninja]

Read the small print. 95% of LGA775 boards are supported. If your board was produced in the last 2 years or so, then its definitely Vista capable.

 

[darious00777]

Not that it matters much, since it's already technically listed with the drivers area, but the Radeon X1300 works great!

The game "Darkstar One" also works, as does the free to play game "Opiette's Falling Sand Game".

Edit: Battlefield 1942: Desert Combat seems to be having some problems. Could be I'm not installing it correctly though. Edit: It has worked too a degree. Problems keep cropping up that prevent me from playing. Never heard of lacking O/S priviledges before.

Darkstar One may have problems running if patched. Unpatched, or, install, patch, uninstall, install, works fine.

 

[shaba230]

I did, i was just kinda scared when i saw the other P5W on there and not the DH, thanks though

 

[jackbauer24]

It installed on my 24" iMac. Was a bit of a complicated process getting all the drivers installed (had to extract them all from the "Macintosh Drivers for Windows XP" thing and then install them all manually) but got it done nonetheless.

FYI, I had no problems with v.7.0. Installed and used to make me a nice new Vista background.

AMD64 3K+, EPoX 8NPA SLI nForce 4 SLI, ATI X600 256MB RADEON
Epson Perfection 4490 Photo film/paper scanner
Windows Vista Ultimate
AVG Antivirus - FTP Voyager v.14.0.0.2
PerfectDisk v.8 - Foobar 2000
Acronis v.9 (SEEMS TO WORK)
Forte Agent v.4.2
Faststone Image Viewer
Faststone Capture
Easy CD-DA Extractor 10.0.5
mIRC 6.21

All working well. Only items left are Roxio v.9 which is falsely advertized as working with Vista and my M-Audio 2496 audio capture card. No drivers for that yet.

General Notice: Please read not on the original post but also the subsequent following post on details of other systems and software running on Vista.

 

[zarooch]

also check your manufacturers website first for detailed information on device drivers for specific version of vista (32bit or 64bit) etc..

I have installed PSP 9 successfully now - it was my error, not the OS / program 😳
