wait is this WDDM 1.1??? No I don't think so. Haven't found the link yet for WDDM 1.1
WDDM 1.1 is already in Windows 7 so you don't need a download (Vista had WDDM 1.0)

I have no doubt. But I think it would be "included" if that's the right word, into Nvidea Graphics Card Drivers . WDDM 1.1 means it is Windows 7 ready.

arent we talking about intel boards??? Yes, but as Windows Display Driver Model (WDDM, also WVDDM) is the graphic driver architecture for video card drivers running Microsoft Windows, the logical place for drivers that use that architecture is in Video card drivers, thats why I said "included" in inverted commas. The driver won't be there but the necessaries to enable that driver will.
