Will AERO work on NVIDIA GeForce FX GO 5700

[Lima Jaric]

I am using a Acer Aspire 1712 laptop. It is having a Nvidia GeForce FX G0 5700 graphic card. It came with Windows XP by default. I want to find that does AERO will work on this gpu. I want to install vista and I receive the most latest Nvidia Beta drivers. So will this work. I do not want to just test Vista and then check those drivers. It would be quiet risky if the gpu does not worked or was detected.

What know that Aero will work. But before installing the same it would be better if you locate actual Vista drivers. Because if that is not working well, then you might stick to XP. AERO needs a basic GPU to render good output. And many users had blindly installed Vista without look for the appropriate drivers. This made the system more buggy.

I too am trying to upgrade my geforce FX go 5700 driver on my toshiba satellite, and i'm getting the same msg as the other chap 'n cant find any suitable drivers' when i run the software. Also, where do i download this modified inf. file, as there are no specific links, and the inf file already seems to be in the 96.85 folder.
Any help would be muchos appreciated.

Thanks,

Anton

It is right. Do not go for blind upgrades. This is a mobile processor. Most probably you will get the drivers from CD that are sold with the laptop. If you are able to find out that the laptop drivers support Vista or not then only it is going to work. Or else it would be worth wasting time on the same.
