    Yes, there is a fix: Use the drivers that come with Whistler. They work (AGP and D3D).

      2276 only worked with the absolute brand spankin' newest drivers when it was released (5.14). Have you tried both 5.14 and 5.20?

        yeah i tried 5.20 but have not tried 5.14. Whistler has drivers for my g450? if so why did it not detect the card as such during install?

          Talk to microsoft and submit a bug report.

              Just tell it you have a G400. Simple.
