nVidia Quadro NVS 120m Help

I have installed Vista Beta2 on a Dell D820 with the following specs: Duo
Core 2.0Ghz, 2GB RAM, 80GB HD, nVidia Quadro NVS120m w/ 512mb RAM, Broadcom
network and Intel Wireless. This is on the highest quality display they
ship with , resolution up to 1920 X 1200.

I cannot get Areo to work, I keep getting BlueScreens due to video drivers,
and I cannot use any of the UI modifications - ie: colors etc. The OS
identifies my video card as a GeForce Go 7400 NOT a Quadro NVS 120m. Has
anyone else seen this issue? I tried installing the new drives from nVidia
but apparently it is not for the Quadro NVS adapters because it reports that
it cannot find a supported video adapter.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

NVIDIA has not released any vista-compatible drivers for the Quadro series.
The Quadro is based on the GeForce 7400, so Vista is doing a good job
actually, or it won't load at all.
The problem is that the max resolution in VGA mode is 1600x1200. Try
lowering to that and try hooking up the screen in VGA mode not DVI.
