Windows 2k3 Driver Support?

[RobHague]

Which graphics cards currently have (or plan too) WHQL support for Windows Server 2003? Also anyone know if NVIDIA are going to get some nforce2 support soon as well?

I know the current drivers run ok normally, but im really after WHQL certified stuff - not install and pray. ;)

Although unfortunately (after asking on rage3d) it seems the ATI driver team have stated they aren’t going to bother making any drivers with win2k3 in mind.... :mad:

Edit - I believe matrox are going to support it, well so i read in the forums (people kept mentioning they said to use the driver that comes with win2k3 until they finnish their driver for it - nice to know some companys care ;)). Maybe i can upgrade to a P-series if i ever see one in stock lmao.

One of the obvious distinctions that should be pointed out is that it is Windows 2003 Server. I can see why support would be lacking. I expect 2003Server would have about the same level of support(eventually) that 2000Server does.

No need to point it out, im quite aware of what it is. ;) :P only jokin'..

Yeah but the thing is, its not the same as 2000 Server.
As Windows 2000 drivers support Professional, Server and Advanced Server versions because they are the same kernel, NT 5.0. This means that any WHQL drivers that say "Win2k" actually mean any version - including server. In that sense 2k Server has as much driver support as the 2k workstation OS.

Unfortunatley Windows 2003 being NT 5.2 any XP drivers are not quite designed for it - while they may work (like some 2k drivers work in XP) they arent gurenteed stable, problem free and definatley are not WHQL.
