1. It's older technology that barely satisfies the minimum hardware requirements of Vista's Aero interface. If you want to use all the Vista "eye candy", invest in a fully Vista (not just Home Basic) Certified compatible graphics card. "Welcome to the wonderful world of Vista!!!"
2. Radeon 9550 is a re-branded and stripped version of Radeon 9700, which supports only DirectX 9.0B and shader model 1.0 Vista's requirement is DirectX9.0C and shader model 2.0 DX9.0B is a totally different stuff from DirectX9.0C, this is hardware limitation, nothing that u can do about it... welcome to vista...
