Hallo, I'm trying to get 8800 GS on bootcamp (Vista 32 bit), but the drivers won't install. When I type "dxdiag" into Run, it identifies the video as being "Standard VGA Adapter," when it should be GeForce 8800 GS. Any help as to how to make it work?

If you installed Windows via Boot Camp, the last step of the process is to insert your System Disc 1 (or Leopard Disc) into the drive whilst running Windows. This will automatically install all the necessary drivers.

Okay... my friend says that never happened. Can it be fixed without reinstalling Windows?

Yep, just boot up into Windows and pop the disc in.
