You sound surprised, did you not know that you're working with a
developers edition?
There's a reason why it will not be in the shops until next year,
submit your problems to Microsoft.
When Vista is out next year and you still have a problem then you can
come and whine.

Vista is not Windows (XP or Server 2003) 64 bit. It is a whole new OS
re-write. As with other re-writes driver issues will exist. Rememeber NT4
to 2000 to XP/2003 ?

Usually new driver works well, ATI said driver for vista are more stable
then for xp.
However if it start test now probably we will have next year, if not we
