Hi

I would like to know if anyone has any major problem using that motherboard
with Vista 64bit, and in particular with an 8800GTS video card

The reason I'm asking is that I'm thinking of changing my curent motherboard
(Asus A8N-SLI Deluxe) for that one, if I can get it to work with that video
card

There are a number of problems with any nVidia card...

If you haven't purchased the card yet, you might want to think about an ATI
chipset.

I already own the card, it owrked great in nXP Pro, but when I tried to
installed Vista I got BSOD.

The problem is not exactly the videocard since many are using it
successfully with Vista, the problem seems to be with the Asus motehrboard

Do Asus have the motherboard chipset utilities available yet for your board?
My hubby has a P5RDM and although they haven't managed to provide a single
driver for this board for Vista, thankfully it works with 32bit without
them. I'd hate to go up to 64bit without them though so he can stick with
32 bit for a while. They do (usually) reply to emails, so I'd drop them a
line and ask if I were you.

And good luck.

rom what I can gather from the Asus Support Forum, Asus is not even
considering Vista at all for any product
