How do we know this isn't the VIVO variety?

I ordered mine on Wed. and called Thurs. They said it had already been shipped. I have not recieved an email confirmation of shipping or the card.

mine was shipped... looks like it is coming from il. i just hope i have it by the weekend. i didn't get an email stating it was shipped either, but i do remember reading somewhere after i placed my order (possibly in the invoice they emailed me) that they do not email shipping confirmation/tracking... you need to log into your account and you will be able to get your tracking number etc... most likely just a ploy to get you back to the site in hopes you will buy more.

In my confirmation email they say they will send an email confirmation that the item has been shipped (which I never got). I went on thier website last night and checked and it says it has been shipped and I should have it soon. I sent a request for another confirmation email and I still haven't gotten one. They do say that thier shipping dept is undergoing some major construction right now though, maybe that is the problem. Anyway I hope the card gets here soon.
*EDIT*
It should be here today!

I bought one, got here in 2 days and its not vivo.
Card works ok, not too noisey or anything...
I have a dual boot system (win 98 and XP Pro) and the drivers borked win98 but I doubt anyone else here is running win 98

i believe ATI discontinued support for windows me/98 last year before the x800s were released.... that might be your problemjabtek said:I bought one, got here in 2 days and its not vivo.

Catalyst 5.2 or 5.3 drivers support Win98/Me and the drivers do work its just choppy... Works perfect for 30 seconds then hangs for 2 or 3 seconds then works perfect again for another 30 seconds.
In anycase I'll be making a box just for my Win98 stuff I use, just got to migrate all my stuff over to my Win64 HD and I'll be good to go.

I really didn't try it for long, and I have no games that really can push the card to the limits or anything.. I played a little CS-S with the card in and it worked but I couldn't see any differance between the X800 and my NV 5950
I ordered BF 2 from Circuit city so I'll be using it for that, as of right now I am back to my NV card due to the Win98 issues.
