When opening Vue 8.4 Infinite (build 51713) yesterday on my 64-bit Vista desktop, I received a message that my video board was obsolete.  Once I downloaded the latest driver for my video card (NVIDIA GeForce 9500) I was able to run Vue using the Open GL 2.1 Shader 4 option again.

However, the same message appeared when opening Vue 8.4 Infinite (build 51713) on my 32-bit Vista laptop today.  Again I downloaded the updated video driver (NVIDIA Georce 8600M) but this time, I was not able to use the Open GL 2.1 Shader 4 option.  The only way Vue would continue was using the fixed hardware pipeline.  Only after I cancelled the update to v. 51713 and reverted back to v. 51487 am I able to run in Open GL mode.

Has anyone else experienced something similar recently?  I am wondering if one of the Windows updates is causing this or if there is something in v. 51713 that is causing this behavior.
