Hello,
This link should explain them:
http://windowshelp.microsoft.com/Windows/en-US/Help/335c6a5d-0304-4af1-b135-
6bf6c124dc111033.mspx#EOMAC
Windows Vista can use any of them, all of them, or none of them.
What is available on any one system is dependant on the hardware, hardware
settings, the installed drivers, the installed software of the system
Thanks,
Darrell Gorter[MSFT]
