Oh what am I going to do now.
I like Nvidia and AMD and do not like ATI or Intel.
AMD is going to buy ATI and Intel is talking about a merger with Nvidia. Why oh why could it not be the other way around!

Oh the Beta driver works on all of my cards with both DS1 and DS2 but I am staying with the current released driver just to be safe.

- what is it that you dislike about Intel - or is AMD just a personal preference? Stare

What I dislike about Intel blondin's ghost is their technical support and RMA policies.
Here is an example. I built two computers for a local farmer. Except for CPU and Motherboard the systems systems were exactly the same. The building the farmer had the computers in suffered a major power surge from lightening strike near it. This was two years ago. Asus replaced both motherboards for a small fee. AMD sent a new processor even after I explained it was from lightening strike, they said it was under warranty so no problem. Intel it took three hours of farting about to get engineer to talk to. I RMA'd the part to intel and as of today there has still been no response from them about the RMA. Really does not matter anymore because parts have moved on and the one the farmer had is no longer being made and the farmer passed last summer. His wife was unsure of his last words but it could have been "intellahhhhhh"
