I had always heard the prompt for Vista Capable was some specific Intel integrated-graphics chipset (915G? 845G?) which was flooding the market, but would never be Aero capable.

Everyone needed new drivers anyway. As I recall, the XP-64 product was basically a painted over Windows Server release that was basically a non-starter.
