Nvidia reveals driver support for Windows 8 preview release

CHIP DESIGNER Nvidia has said its upcoming R302 drivers have attained Microsoft Windows hardware quality labs (WHQL) certification for the Windows 8 operating system.

Nvidia’s R302 graphics drivers are set to be launched next week but the firm is keen to point out that they have already passed WHQL testing and are certified for Windows 8. The firm has had Windows 8 drivers for some time, however the R302 release will be supported on the Windows 8 preview release.
