![]() ![]() ![]() All you have to do is manually force Windows to use the similar driver, and assuming the two models are at least 80% similar (in basic functionality), there should not be any compatibility problem. This is far from my area of expertise as I work in the infrastructure space - Intel surely this needs to get flagged up properly - maybe someone has an escalation path internally I have read in another post that someone hacked an Intel GMA 950 (945G) driver to work in Intel 915. This is far from my area of expertise as I work in the infrastructure space - Intel surely this needs to get flagged up properly - maybe someone has an escalation path internally to resurrect an old post, I have had a post on my blog for the last 10 months or so showing a hack/bodge to get the 855 vista driver to work with Windows 7 Read these posts and the comments that followed, I would love to see Intel reconsider and provide an updated version of the Vista driver that works in Win 7 - everyone understands Aero/wizzy graphics aren't going to happen - but full resolution and support are what are required. Whilst I take the point about the chipset being EoL'd this article is currently getting over 1000 hits/day from google searches - so there is definitley a demand out there with Intel customers. Sorry to resurrect an old post, I have had a post on my blog for the last 10 months or so showing a hack/bodge to get the 855 vista driver to work with Windows 7 If Intel says the card can't handle the graphics then they are lying and just need to tell their customers they don't care about them or the Mobile Intel 915 card.They just care about money and want them to purchase something new from them. Here's a video showing the graphic capabilities of the card: Knowing the card is very capable of running at least Windows Aero Standard. It's sad to find threads by users asking Intel since the release of Vista for something and Intel turns their back and doesn't deliver. If Intel really cares about their customers, they should at least give 915 users the capability of running Windows Aero Standard on their laptops. My laptop is 1.7GHZ, 2GB RAM, 100GB, WIFI and more with the Mobile Intel 915 card. If this card can run "Compiz" on Ubuntu great (meaning animations, see through window frames with reflections and more) then it should be able to handle Windows Aero Standard. I think Intel needs to create drivers for 915 owners to enable Windows Aero Standard. 400 MHz DAC frequency for up to 2048x1526 resolution for both analog and digital displays on 915 G/GL and for 915GM/GML in dual-channel mode, up to 2048x1536 at 60 Hz or dCRT/HDTV up to 1920x1080 at 85 Hz.I know the card probably couldn't handle the full see through glass with blur (even though Windows Blinds seemed to got it to work), but I know this graphics card can handle Windows Aero Standard and be certified by Microsoft to run it.Microsoft DirectX* 9 Vertex Shader 2.0 and Transform and Lighting supported in software through highly optimized Processor Specific Geometry Pipeline (PSGP).Microsoft DirectX* 9 hardware acceleration features: Up to 4 pixels per clock rendering.Operating systems supported: Microsoft Windows XP*, Windows 2000*, Linux*-compatible (Xfree86 source available).Dynamic Display Modes for flat-panel and wide-screen support.Up to 8.5 GB/sec memory bandwidth with DDR2 533 MHz. ![]() The features of the IntelĀ® Graphics Media Accelerator 900 (IntelĀ® GMA 900) are listed as follows: ![]()
