Aero and Intel Graphics Cards by
crosswalker21
I tried to install Vista on my laptop which has an Intel 82852/82855 GM/GME
graphics controller. I was booted into the "basic" version of windows Vista
so I couldn't see the snazzy aero interface. What I'm wondering is if
there's any way to make my graphics card support pixelshader 2.0(which was
the only reason, according to the upgrade advisor, that I couldn't view aero)
or if that's a...

problem with creative live 24bit USB on 5536 by
Hilmar
the system recognizes a usb sound device. when I go to "manage audio
devices" and then "speakers" and "configure" I can set it to 5.1 and the
test clearly puts sound through all five speakers correctly.
However, no program plays 5.1, only stereo (wmp, media monkey). it does not
work with other creative drivers as they only work for internal cards to
this point.
any idea how I an fix this?...

Screen never turns off by
Hauk
I have Vista pre-RC1 build 5536. This is the first build I've tried on this
computer. I dual-boot into XP, works fine. I have a problem with that the
screen never goes into energy-save mode. After the set time out (20 minutes)
the screen goes black, but the monitor is still on, I can see that the
backlight is on, and the LED shows that it's on.
I have an AGP ATI Radeon 9550 graphics card....

USB Ports by
Tom Hammond
I'm having a *little* more luck on my Gigabyte GAK8N-PRO SLI motherboard.
With 1.1 + 2.0 only the keyboard and mouse work... all other devices try to
install but fail
Disabling 2.0 in BIOS (i.e. only 1.1 support) allows me to use all my other
devices: external disks, camera, scanner, printer etc.
nvidia Drivers not ready?

I know this is kind of off topic, but has anyone tried the install either Linux or Windows on a 4 gb USB Flash drive and then boot their computer from it? If so, what would be the procedure and how would be of a benefit?

Vanja Lolz
I previously ran vista public beta 2 and managed to get my TV Tuner card
(Compro DVB-T300, phillips saa7134) working in media center. It took alot of
trial and error with various different drivers found on the internet.
Now I have upgraded to build 5536, and no matter which driver I try I
haven't been able to get Media Center to detect my tuner card. The best
result I've had is to have the...

VIA onboard audio by
Rick
I have a SOYO motherboard with a VIA 1616 6 channel chipset (5.1 audio).
The sound/speaker setup on build 5536 only allows for 2 channel stereo. I
cannot find any way to enable 5.1 or anything other than stereo. The device
manager shows the sound card as "VIA AC'97 Enhanced Audio Controller" using
a Microsoft driver version 6.0.5536.16385 dated 6/21/06. I'd appreciate any
help. Thanks

nVidia drivers 3D gaming by
Joe Negrau
Hi there,
I have an nVidia 6600GT with 256MB. I'm curious which drivers you are using
with Pre-RC1 Build 5536. The default driver that Vista uses is useless for
3D gaming. (I can't play City of Villains.)
The lastest nVidia beta drivers (ver 88.61) didn't work either. System
would boot up normally (hearing all the usual sounds) but just a black
screen. On their site nVidia says the...

vista version by
Whiteflokati
I am a bit confused now, lol. I have an AMD 64 machine but I installed Beta
2x86.... If i try the Beta 2x64 disc it says wrong version.
Anyway, my nvidia drivers don't work well on it and I wish I could uninstall
it now but it seems impossible without major work...

USB drives and mapped drive letter conflicts by
TechDesign
Happy to report back on my own post...THIS IS FIXED!
Build 5536 fixes this issue. Now, USB drives, and I assume any removeable
media, finds the next "available" drive letter, avoiding mapped drives.
Thank you Microsoft for fixing this headache!
