It comes with a catalyst control center. It is certified for windows vista. I think it is a very nice graphics card. Halo says [We're sorry the game did not exit correctly should it be run in safe mode?] It detected a 64M Nvidia GeForce3 (0x0200) video card.

I followed your steps exactly and Halo installed, but when the screen loads, I can hear the background music, but the area with the Halo logo across the top, and the Campaign, Multiplayer, Profiles, Settings, Credits, and Quit all have white boxes over them and no mouse control.
