Default Norwood Radeon 9250: 256MB PCI: Is Vista Capable?

Hello All,

I brought Norwood Radeon 9250, 256MB PCI graphics card. I wonder if it is
fully supported by Vista?

Yesterday I ran Vista Capable tool, it showed me, this card doesnot support
Pixel Shader 2.0. So Aero doesn't work.

I wonder, if there is any PCI card (Any Brand) which is capable of getting
full features in Vista and should be 256MB of memory.

I am looking for your suggestions.

Thanks in Advance,
Kode.

I got a great deal on eBay for an ATI Radeon 9550 and it works like a charm.

Hi Peter,

Is this a PCI card? I am looking for PCI card, coz my system doesn't have
AGP slot (almost 3yr old dell dimension)

Thanks for your input.
