Video Card for Vista

[Guest]

Want to install Vista on my desktop, but video card is not supported. Is
there a way to find out if the one I'm considering buying is?

Sure...since your post didn't include which card you are considering, just
go to the video card manufacturer's web site and look.

Does the card you are considering support DirectX 9 (at minimum) and OpenGL
2.0? Does it have (at minimum, 256 MB or more is better) 128 MB of on board
video memory? Does the video chipset manufacturer provide Vista drivers for
the card? Does the card maker state the card supports Vista AeroGlass? If
the answers to all the above questions are yes, then you're OK.
If you're still not sure, post back with a link to the card, and somebody
here can tell you.
