[QUOTE="chscag, post: 947463, member: 46727"] Hi again: OK. You're using the Boot Camp version from your Leopard DVD (10.5.8) which is more than likely BC 2.0 or possibly 2.1. See if you can determine which version of BC you have installed. If it's 2.0, download the Vista BC 2.1 update from Apple and run it while booted from Windows. Or, if you wish, buy a copy of Snow Leopard ($29) and use the Snow Leopard DVD to update BC. Boot Camp 3.0 is on the Snow Leopard DVD and has support for XP and Vista both 32 and 64 bit. As long as Windows "thinks" your video adapter is something else, it's not going to allow an update even with the correct drivers. You might be able to overcome that in Safe Mode. Give it a try and let us know. Reards. [/QUOTE]
