Nvidia facing possible lawsuit over Vista drivers @ TG Daily
Posted by Regeneration on February 3rd, 2007, 02:35 PM

A group of Nvidia customers are upset over the company's lack of final Vista drivers and are now threatening a class action lawsuit against the graphics card giant. The customers claim that the cards don't adequately work with Microsoft's newest operating system and feel that the company isn't being truthful about being "Vista Ready". One customer, who we can only name as 'Nathan', has even created a website nvidiaclassaction.org and is seeking legal help for a possible lawsuit.

Welcome to the club. Microsoft has released the first Vista beta almost ten months ago, to the public. Nvidia and everyone else had enough time to work on their Vista drivers! And it seems that ten months is not enough for them. This is totally unacceptable! They had enough time to keep their promises.

MS isn't the one suing nVidia, nVidia's customers are.

Am glad to hear some people are starting to sue nVidia, its been nearly a week since I bought Vista home premium, and still no official drivers for my 6600GT, am using FW 100.54 rite now.. but those drivers ain't stable!!
ATI has already released Catylist 7.1 for Vista, I feel the drivers for Vista are long overdue now!!

go ahead and sue,.. nvidia never misrepesented the public.

Vista Ready is a Windows Vista marketting campaign, by MS and Joint hardware/software vendors.

The Drivers, COULD NOT be based off the Vista beta driver format, as there was quite a few LARGE changes to the driver architecture, and kernel, inbetween Beta 1 and RC2

actually, the changes between RC2 and RC1 were so major that RC1 drivers don't work properly on RC2, as had been seen by all the idiots trying to install said drivers.
