Microsoft says in one of the Vista help files that if your resolution is x or lower, you can use a 64 MB WDDM compatible graphics card. Because they would rather sell you a new chipset and make a new "Vista Aero compatibility" a carrot for it too.

DomZ Posted November 1, A bit of thread hijacking, will my inspiron intel gm graphics support glass? Southern Patriot Posted November 1, Ambroos Posted November 1, Even if I weren't an Intel employee, I just don't think it's rational to blame Intel that an old, low end graphics chip can't run the advanced high end graphics features of an operating system that didn't even exist when it was built.
If MS can release unofficial packs for XP etc. Tweak UI on a conditional basis and then offer no support for it why can't Intel release a Tweak equivalent for the series with no support?
I am sure that with all the collective horse power at Intel you can come up with one and get it approved by MS? Even if we suffer a slight drop in performance As to MAD I am not mad, mad suggest's irrational behaviour - I am rational - I am just let down in the same way if you buy a new car and it breaks you get upset - but not mad as it serves no purpose. I admire your 'candour' for putting your neck out on the fourm and speaking up for Intel - I don't have to agree with you.
BTW - when I bought my machine I a. Didn't have access to the Intel website to help me decide if the machine in front of me with a sticker on that said 'Vista Capable' really ment it or not and b.
The salesman or the brouchure did'nt point out that I was buying old, low end graphics. Microsoft accused of using deceptive marketing to tout Vista : A legal fight is brewing over PCs advertised as being 'Vista capable' What about x drivers, intel never says anything about it, and keeps delaying drivers indefinetly.
Are we x G users also getting a "video explanation" in a couple of months? If intel is capable of getting away unpunished from all the mess then whats to keep them from making the same with the and and even with the upcoming IGPs? Ive not replied to any remarks about the lack of aero support as the hardware is an old architecture made for xp but ok for vistas basic gui Wikipedia section under the GMA was updated in regarding the Aero support.
I will not be doning this and if i where to do this i will not be buying a laptop with Windows or a Intel chipset of any kind, i shall also inform others to do the same. Or you could find a way around this problen and create the driver thus saving alot of people a heck load of money.
Fellow users, I guess this is a hopeless battle. I got HP just last year when all the excitement on Vista was coming, and we all thought that it will run Aero - so we made the foolish investment only to find out Intel and Microsoft will not give Aero to I suggest if you are a little tight in budget esp home users get a graphic card from vendors.

This has been probably the hottest topic in this forum, and now, as I had promised, I have the video posted with the "bottom line" explanation of why the Intel integrated graphics solution doesn't have a WDDM driver.
