Hello, I Finaly decided to try out vista.. and got some problems already so here we go! I really hope someone here can help me out.

First off, I have a GeForce FX5700LE and have installed the new Beta 2 vista drivers from the nvidia website. But i cant find ANY controls for gamma or gamma overlay, brightness etc etc.. on windows xp pro, it was Control Panel > Display > Settings > Advanced > Nvidia Tab. But now im in vista these tabs are not there! Just got a tab for the monitor/refresh rate a tab for some info on the RAMDAC and thats it! Anyone know where the settings im looking for are?

Also, After loading certin websites and i move the mouse the IE window flickers and quite a bit to but it dont do it with every website.

And last but no least... Music... it playes ok but if i start doing anything elce it stutters a bit and its qiute anyoing now.

Anyway i hope someone here can give some help into these problems!

Thanks in advance!

Sorry, don't have the answers to those, but I'll see if I can find anything out about them. And perhaps, someone else here will know.

i have windows xp with ie7 installed and on some of the websites it does flicker alot i can usually just close out of ie and start over and it wont do it also it only does it when i have more than one tab open mabye there is a problem with the tabs.

Ah, right ok... looks like ill have to put up with that for now then.

Back to the display problems (gamma settings) Ive been sifting though the help topics that come with the driver download and if i go to control panel then to Nvidia Control Panle it shows 4 options, well in the help it does!!!!! and one of those 4 options is the one i need!! but if i go to this menu on my pc theres only 2 options.. the other 2 are not shown for some reason and im in advanced view

Any ideas?

I have a GeForce 6200OC and, seeing as how the drivers and OS are beta, there isn't much functionality. They do have some settings under Control Panel, but I can't remember the location. I'll post that later tonite.

As far as music goes, you may want to check with the sound card manufacturer to see if they support Vista beta drivers. Hope this helps...

The stuttering music problem could be a sound card problem instead of a Vista related problem? what kind of stuff are you trying to play/listen to?

[Seansmit17]

Sound card works fine with xp... and its just mp3/wma that im playing

[ninikins]

OK...sounds like a vista problem then. And possibly related somehow to the slickering screen? no clue how to help you though, sorry.

[dazzlin]

Did you check for new drivers for the sound card that are designed for vista?

[ninikins]

Is there any way to get in touch with a Help team or something like that if you run into problems such as these while trying Vista?
