Would a PCI graphics card (Nvidia GeForce 5200) allow Aero Glass to work in
Vista?

Cannot vouch for the 5200 - but the 5500 (256mb) works great!

It's included in the NVIDIA GPUs 'Windows Vista Ready' List on the NVIDIA
site so should work ok.

Since there are drivers for the 5200, then I would believe it should work.

I am using a test machine with an Nvidia 5200,an AMD1800XP and 1.5 GB Ram,
all on a 32 bit system, I am able to run the new MS flight Sim and "flip 3D"
and aero glass.Admittedly,it is not perfect ,but I am waiting for the release
of Vista,before I build a new machine.
