For those with N-videa GForce Go 7300 & 7400 video cards who are having problems with your videos
Vista will fix the bugs and make them work as good if not better than an ATI X1400
With Vista Hardware acceleration problems no longer exist
All your visual effects & transitions will work just fine.
I would suggest doing a “Clean” upgrade (where vista wipes your hard drive)
Than reinstall all your old programs with the newest drivers.
Just doing an upgrade over your old version of XP will make some of your programs work poorly or not at all.
If any one else finds that Vista has helped their video run "Better OR Worse" please list it here.
I know lots of people have those GForce Go 7300 & 7400 video cards so now you have a fix.

does it help my nvidia gforce go 7600 as well?
Is it possible to install vista over XP and use vista only for vdj and XP for all the other programs?

I like the idea of a clean install, but I'm going to wait until I know the firebox and a few otehr programs I have are supported byy Vista.
I does look really nice though.

Yeah I tested vista and it definitely seems to handle video a bit better than xp. However, where the problems lie with vista is driver support for all of our pro sound cards. As far as I can tell so far there are no drivers for anything ESI or M-Audio or the Presonas etc... I hope these companies do something soon. You'd think they could have had something ready. Vista was in beta for how long????

I just tested vista out at the computer store I bought my pc from on a computer with same geforce go 7400 graphics card 128 meg dedicated and 128 shared and it seemed to work flawlessly! It got me all excited lol. The only obvious difference between that and my laptop is that it has 2gig ram compared to my 1gig ram.
They said they would do a straight swap with my laptop since I have the problem with video freezing etc. My laptop is 17inch, has a media remote and extra usb port in comparison to the 15inch I tested. Good or bad idea?
I didnt see it as a good swap so I've opted to upgrade my ram to 2gig and install vista upgrade at cost price. Hopefully it works just as good as the laptop I tested vdj on. I find it quite convenient that they are still willing to allow me to swap the laptop I bought which is more than 6months old now and has a few wear and tear scratches lol.
I just remembered I had to copy my install files on the demo laptop, I better get back and delete them...
If anyone else has good news please report.

vista has a totaly new Video and sound Api
It handles it much better than xp due to optimised code
it is aslo great for shared graphics cards.
and you will find files load much faster :)

Can you actually run video (Vista as OS) using a notebook w/ nVidia Go 7400 on VDJ?
What format are the videos on? VOB? AVI? XVID? DIVX? MPEG?

Just curious, why are you changing laptops if running videos works fine on your current laptop?

Okay I'm thinking of switching to vista - but does the DAC2 have vista drivers yet?
what about the X-session Pro?

what about the Nvidia GeForce Go 7900 GS?

because the next one is to much better, core 2 duo 7200 with 4 mo cache.
The 7900 GS is good for video mixing, and with vista its better.
