Getting Vista and the XBOX 360 HD DVD Drive To Work — Almost there!
Related Entries: Home Theater
This morning, I got so close to getting Vista to playback a HD DVD from the XBOX 360 HD DVD addon drive. However, after running the Cyberlink HD Advisor, it reported that I’m not ready yet. A new HDCP enabled Nvidia 7950 graphics card should be arriving today (or tomorrow) — that should make everything green. I’m not sure about the graphics driver. I can’t seem to find a Purevideo HD driver for Vista (only XP)… so I might be S.O.L. until one is released. We’ll have to wait until the new graphics card arrives to be sure.

HD DVD is great but the xbox 360 coupled with the HD drive sounds like a jet engine

I have gotten the HD-DVD drive to work on XP with the Purevideo HD driver but have yet tested on Vista. Please keep us posted regarding your results becasue I don’t want to go to Vista and have my HD-DVD stop working =(
