This is the type of support that will make Win7 a far better OS than Vista in every way. It does help that they use the same drivers format.
MS did seem to get drivers support earlierÂ by manufacturers.Â I always felt that Vista was just a visual update than a true productivity andÂ code update.

Just a word to the wary... I am running W7 build 7057 and just tried the new ATI drivers... BEWARE! In every build from 7000 (32&64 bit) the ATI drivers fouled up my system. As System Restore was an iffy proposition in the early builds that meant re-installs. Build 7057 System Restore is operational (slow) so you can take your chances... good luck!

Interesting that they now say that the ATI drivers officially support Windows 7 - not sure I'd trust them to run my games as yet, I always re-boot back to Vista for gaming.
