Asus, for example makes several boards that are so-certified. I recently built a PC based on an Asus M2N-E (of no interest to you as it uses an AMD CPU), that Asus certified as Vista-compatible. The Vista (x86) install process was smooth as silk with no driver issues at all. Check the Asus site (and other manufacturers - Abit, Epox, MSI, Biostar, etc.) for a board suitable for your existing hardware. http://www.asus.com |

I have the same MB branded by EVGA as the EVGA 122-CK-NF68-A1 LGA 775 NVIDIA nForce 680i SLI. You can get details and scads of reviews from NewEgg. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16813188013 Actually the MB I have is the AR model which was slightly modified and updated as the the current A1 to improve the overclocking of the the QUAD CPU family. Recently lower cost reduced function models have become available. EVGA offers to AR owners a no cost cross shipment swith to the A1 model and they pay round trip shipping. On the AR & A1 models they have a lifetime guarantee with cross shipping replacement but you pay to return the faulty board. The other boards are guarantee for lesser time. I'm totally pleased with my experience and have used it with both Vista x86 and x64. I almost never use it in x86 mode except for testing apps that I write. I've had no driver problems. Here are details of my rig which uses a Viewsonic vx2025wm 20.5" LCD 1680x1050 display and the 1.86 GHz Intel E6300 is overclocked to 2.9GHz and gamers usually take it up to 3.15GHz and use 1 or 2 Nvida 8800 video cards in parallel using SLI. When the time comes I'll switch to a Quad and increase the memory by either 2 or 4 GB and I've got 4 spare SATA connectors. ;) EVGA 680i 122-CK-NF68 AR (P27) C2D E6300 @2.9GHz 1.25 v (QDR 1660) Zalman 9500 /w SpeedFan controlling CPU temp 2GB OCZ2P800R21G @830MHz 2.00v 4-4-4-2T WD Raptor 74GB & WD Caviar 500GB SATA II Optical NEC DVD_RW ND-3550A ATA Case Antec T1050BX /w 500W SmartPower 2.0 Vista x32 Business /w EVGA 7600GT video |
