We need new (LDDM) Drivers!


Recommended Posts

Its like the sound drivers. They will either work for you or not. Those of us running Nvidia driver 6-series and up shouldn't have any problems as they are automatically recognized. Remember to right click>properties>compatability mode and set to XP and that "might" help.

CTRL + SHIFT + F9? What's that? I only know CTRL + SHIFT + F5, but that is something different and have nothing to do with this. But I treid, nothing happen.

CTRL + SHIFT + F9 its for switching between the aero glass and aero standars theme it works great if u feel glass is making your system slow u can just press these keys to turn off all the fancy features and ofcourse turn back on cuz vista witout glass looks ugly

:devil:

control shift f9 also works if you glass experience catches a bug and starts slowing down (happens). This will refresh it and it will go back to its proper performance.

I'm psyched because it works pretty decent on my card, I can't wait until they improve it.

Please excuse me for being a n00b :laugh:

I can't get Glass working :pinch: It's probably bescause the nvidia LDDM driver for my video card are not installed. But the problem is that i can't install them :blink: It says that my video card is unsupported but mine is a 6800 Gt wich work on AGP , so i don't understrand what is wrong :huh: And i think there is no other way to get Glass working...

I hope that someone will help me :)

PS: I am sorry about my crappy english ...

Glass worked from after vista first booted for me. I have a nVidia GeForce 5500 FX. But the drive vista provided was horrible and the display was sloooow.

So thank you to whoever posted above to "Upgrade" the drive to 75.03 by pointing it to the extracted directory!!! Now I have a nice speedy Glass display :)

you have to manually upgrade the drivers, NOT use the setup.exe

Ok yes i have the old lddm drivers yes it gibes me animations and glass, but thats the only thing it does, i still scroll thru windows as if i dont have any drivers at all, they lag, i still want to have glass and no lag while scrolling thru a website, i mean if anyone can compile some of nvidias new drivers with lddm support that would be nice.

this build is a big improvement stability wise over beta 1, I'm getting some hope.

Especially it improves once the smbus drivers for nforce2 are installed.

sound doesn't work for me at all on this version. I sure hope nvidia gives us drivers that work for soundstorm.

:no: I completely disagree... at least with my particular system. I installed it on both on my notebook and desktop (check sig for system specs) and I've had nothing but problems. My desktop runs extremely slow and I cannot seem to get drivers to install on the system without having problems. My desktop is pretty much the same way, except the drivers do install, but the system is extremely sluggish. I thought maybe it was something in the background hung up, but the processor was in use at maybe 3-4%.

This build, at least in my opinion, seems to be much worse then the beta 1 build.

Out of no where, I'll get the BSOD... MACHINE_CHECK is all it really tells me too. Just a big mess.

I installed using the setup.exe in XP mode and I now have glass. No problems during install. I think its different for everyone.

Too bad for you, it's running way better than Beta 1 over here. Sure it's not stable enough for any use, but you can see where they're going with it.

How did you get them to install because they won't install for me says it cannot find the files for my operating system. (and yes I am using Beta 1 Vista nVidia drivers and not ones meant for XP)

Neither did I.

First, I installed Windows Vista Beta Build 5219, then I added NVIDIA driver for my 7800GTX using supplementary driver pack.

After that, I added "EnableMachineCheck = 1" in "HKLM\Software\Microsoft\DWM".

No aero-glass effect for me. :(

How did you guys with 7800GTX enabled Aero-Glass effect?

Even if you got it working (I did too), the performance of the effects is extremely slow (compared with Beta 1), the graphics system in Windows Vista changed so much in the last few months they need a new driver for things to work properly.
