It is far better to contact the hardware manufacturer personally rather than
another online petition which seem to have less credibility. -- Jupiter Jones [MVP] http://www3.telus.net/dandemar http://www.dts-l.org "Teeravee Sirinapasawasdee" m wrote in message ... Hi, If you are using Intel 915 chipset without aonther graphic chipset onboard, goto http://www.petitiononline.com/intel915/petition.html and sign it. The owner of petition will send this list to Intel that we are in trouble. Cheers, Pound@Gestalt |

Did the person, who originally complained, go to his Laptop manufacturer
and check if his Laptop was compatible with Vista - before buying and installing it? Did he check the Vista Hardware Compatibility list at MS? Also, the Upgrade Advisor only "advises".... it's not meant to be a definitive decision making tool. And BTW - no hardware manufacturer HAS to make their hardware Vista capable. It can be expensive to provide the needed time and resources for compatibility updates for new Operating Systems, and is some times just not worth it.

After installing Vista, and trying load the Movie Maker, I was informed that my video card does not support it. This is very upsetting as the Windows Vista Upgrade advisor indicated that my Laptop was the 'IDEAL' machine for Windows Vista. After doing extensive research, I have found that my Intel 915 Chipset is not supported for AERO Glass capability, no problem, but to discover that I just spent 300.00 for a new operating system with LESS capability is just plain wrong. You should either make these items workable, reguardless of AERO capability or FORCE Intel to provide a 915 Driver. ---------------- This post is a suggestion for Microsoft, and Microsoft responds to the suggestions with the most votes.

Perhaps, but I have Zero confidence in such petitions while I have more in
contacting the manufacturers directly. Contacting the manufacturer directly normally give contact information while such surveys such as this are usually anonymous with nothing more than a name. Hopefully there is a suggestion on that page to also contact the manufacturer. -- Jupiter Jones [MVP] http://www3.telus.net/dandemar http://www.dts-l.org "Teeravee Sirinapasawasdee" m wrote in message ...

I think you are all missing the point on the original post. Look at it more
closely, they don’t care if Aero Glass runs or not, they upgraded to Vista for the Movie Maker enhancements and Movie Maker will not load because of the 915 chip. I have the same problem, I cannot run Movie Maker either, when I start the program it says, “Windows Movie Maker cannot start because your video card does not support the required level of hardware acceleration or hardware acceleration is not available.” I have the same 915 integrated chip.

Accually, in petition signing step, it asks user to write their e-mail
address. So that the owner of petition can have complete full list to send to Intel and Intel can contact back to users who have an email address.
