Re: What drivers for 5200?

Well only for the time being. You're not a smartarse, but - it isn't 10 years old as I have checked.

However they (NVidia) did say they were supporting it in Vista and it works. And DirectX9 was introduced in December 2002.

So why does a card introduced in 2004 not work with Aero for DVD burning (which does a brilliant job) but one in 2003 does?

See the table below of the FX5200...




Codename NV30 Created 2003 Entry-level GPU GeForce FX 5200 series
GeForce FX 5500
GeForce PCX 5300 Mid-Range GPU GeForce FX 5600 series
GeForce FX 5700 series
GeForce PCX 5750 High-end GPU GeForce FX 5800 series
GeForce FX 5900 series
GeForce FX/PCX 5950 DirectX version 9.0b

not compatible




compatible



Don't ask why I did that.
