8800GT Legacy...Supported OS

[AppleNewton]

I have a Previous Gen MacPro 2.66...Going to get the legacy edition card; is there a minimum system requirements? i currently run a 10.4.10 OSX Drive 10.5.2 & XP drive.

should it work under 10.4.10 or no?
and is there a direct link to the nvidia drivers for XP for the 8800 legacy?

thanks!

Only work in Leopard I believe.

yeah i heard conflicting reports on it working under OSX 10.4 and the XP Drivers i heard alot of misconceptions too; Bootcamp 2.0/2.1 drivers may or may not work and the nVidia.com drivers are hit or miss, but id rather have a DIRECT link to the ones people are currently using on Their macpro w/ the 8800Legacy


thanks

The card only works in Leopard, any other version of OS X results in a Kernel Panic.

Drivers for Vista are easily found on Guru3d.com (just download the latest available), and performance in Vista is great! I'm playing Crysis, Rainbow Six, etc, without any problems at all.
