If I want my system to run at a snail's pace just so I can have Aero, it should be my choice, not theirs. I'm actually curious what these so called hardware limitations are. I doubt very much that those 'hardware limitations' will keep the system from completely running.

Aero ran perfectly fine on the previous builds, and those weren't even finalized and ran much slower than the RTM. Given this, there are hardware limitations in the 915 Express chipset architecture that would limit graphics performance and memory capabilities when attempting to run WDDM on Vista.' 'The overall graphics architecture and design of the 915 Express chipset family (with Intel? Graphics Media Accelerator 900 graphics engine) was finalized prior to Microsoft releasing details and specifications around the Windows Display Driver Model (WDDM) driver. Given this, there are hardware limitations in the 915 Express chipset architecture that would limit graphics performance and memory capabilities when attempting to run WDDM on Vista. Windows Vista will install on these platforms, but advanced features such as Windows Aero will not be enabled as XPDM drivers do not support Windows AERO Q5: Why doesn?t the Intel 915 Express chipset family support Windows Vista Aero?< AA: The overall graphics architecture and design of the 915 Express chipset family (with Intel? Graphics Media Accelerator 900 graphics engine) was finalized prior to Microsoft releasing details and specifications around the Windows Display Driver Model (WDDM) driver. However, Windows Vista is supported on the Intel? 845G, 865G, 915G Express desktop chipsets and 852/855GM mobile chipsets running XPDM (XP Display Driver Model) drivers for Intel graphics. See question 5 below for a detailed explanation of WDDM support on Intel? 915 Express chipset-based platforms. Q3: Is Intel providing WDDM drivers for Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 900 (Intel GMA 900) on Intel 915 Express chipset-based platforms?Ī: Intel will provide support for WDDM drivers beginning with the Intel? 945 Express chipset family and beyond.

Intel will not release wddm drivers for 915 and below ever.
