I have been doing some testing of SW2007 here, getting ready to throw the switch. Everything looks good except the on screen display. My preview images are fine, but what I see in the graphics area is horrible. I looked at the SW website and found that my driver was actually newer than what SW approved, so I installed the older one. Still bad video. Any ideas?

Thanks,
Ken

Did completely uninstall the "too-new" driver before installing the approved one? See faq559-1194.

I did not completely un-install the "too-new" driver, but I think that the installer application did because once my computer rebooted (the first time) I got the "New Hardware Found" etc...
