Default Driver Recomendation

I have a Nvidia 7800 GTX and running Vista 32.

I'm running stock Nvidia drivers, and was wondering if anyone know of any tweated drivers that run better.

Thanks!

The 7800 GTX is a car I never have heared of, but that the Vista 32 should be running instead of driving I really have a problem to believe. A car with legs? Also, I am wondering why all your drivers are running, when they have those two cars to choose from in which they could drive?! So I'm sorry, but I do not know any driver who runs faster than your Vista is driving, but I so far have refused to dope my own drivers. When feeding them the according chemicals, who knows if my drivers eventually could outrun your driving cars. But after all I prefer drivers in cars, and all others run while they are driving.

Vista is a rough mistress, dude. Double that for gamers.

Check http://ww.guru3d.com and see what kind of drivers you can get. Look for the latest "WHQL" version for Vista 32bit.

Skybird is probably still piqued about my 'ignorant' statment on the flying terrorist thread.

Yeah, Vista is not a good gamer choice, but I do like the interface, so have decided to stick with it.

Thanks Tycho, I'll try that.
