Re: Do you need special drivers for MCE?

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Video card and tuner drivers have to be MCE compatible. That's generally about it.

If I install MCE on my PC do I need special drivers or will ordinary XP
drivers work?

If so, how come I see some device drivers (such as ATI's) list XP and MCE
drivers separately?

Cheers.
