riahc3 Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 I don't think its impossible because people have made custom audio drivers and custom video drivers. But please to that guy that "says" he's hacking the registry and editing notepad - 1999 called and wants to reunite all its kiddie scripters :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brandon Live Veteran Posted March 22, 2007 Veteran Share Posted March 22, 2007 I think they will release WDDM at some point purely because so so many people have signed the petition. We all know it is possible because the specs of the card meet the MS requirements, and in the pre-rc1 betas we had some beta WDDM drivers which would let the card run aero. They do? I thought for sure it didn't meet the memory access requirements of WDDM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J400uk Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 No they deffientely do (intel 915) which is kinda why people are so cross and upset with intel about it for not releasing the appropiate drivers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We all know it is possible because the specs of the card meet the MS requirements, and in the pre-rc1 betas we had some beta WDDM drivers which would let the card run aero. This is just like how ATI messed with the Mobility Radeon 7500 drivers in their Catalyst packages. In case you don't know that saga, here's the rundown. The ATI Mobility Radeon 7500 can hardware-accelerate per-pixel alpha blending. The (original) OEM drivers can do this. But the later Catalyst packages (and later OEM drivers) have that part of the driver removed. People complained and complained, because WB5 required this and ATI didn't deliver. And they never did. Neither will Intel. They have better things to do than code drivers for old graphics chips. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J400uk Posted April 1, 2007 Share Posted April 1, 2007 @Ledward What you have to remember is that the intel 910 is hardly an old card as it is still been sold with PCs today Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
