Absolutely no other driver has either enabled aero or had any type of 3d acceleration. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Osman Kovan Posted March 31, 2019 Share Posted March 31, 2019 I tried the 372.70 version on the Windows Vista Enterprise SP2 x64 with Platform Update (KB971512), Platform Update Supplement (KB2117917) and Windows Driver Framework 1.11 (KB2761494). I have MSI GTX 1050 Ti 4GT OC and Vista plays 4K videos very smoothly with patched 372.70 driver. But when i tried to play GTA San Andreas it looks like very bad. I get only 5-10 FPS on the GTA San Andreas. I know this driver doesn't supports DirectX apps with GTX 1xxx series on Windows Vista. Is there a way to patch this issue or anybody tried to patch this issue? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only OpenGL games ran fine. For any DirectX ones, you'd be better of playing with a toaster. After all, I ended up getting an GTX 970 and I am on XP now. Everything works flawlessly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt it would take lots of resources to make a Windows 7 driver available to Vista from Nvidia, considering how similar those OSes actually are.

IntMD Posted April 25, 2019 Share Posted April 25, 2019 Come to think of it, if OpenGL applications are fully accelerated whilst DirectX ones aren't with 372.70, maybe we can workaround by using WineD3D for DirectX apps. It's sloppy but it's better than nothing :/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vista driver support ended at 365.19. And this driver maximum supports GTX Titan Z. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pastelito Posted June 6, 2021 Share Posted June 6, 2021 (edited) So I revisited Vista since it now has the extended kernel and I was trying to get my 1050 to work, i think I got it to work but I haven't tested many games. Before it was the same as described here, 5 fps max, absolute garbage. So basically try modding 375.63 or 373.06 adding the kernel from 372.70. I add the files in the link https://www.mediafire.com/file/kloo2vv9f3six00/VistaMod.7z/file DX9 DX11 Edited June 6, 2021 by Pastelito 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Idk if its going to work on your 1060, try the 373.06 driver, seems to be the last one to fully support nvidia, also the files are 64bits. Sadly most games that i try aren't supported by vista, i try subnautica subzero and i think that its the same fps as w7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, replace the files before installing, extract the drivers .exe with 7zip then put the files inside Display.Driver, then install. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
