I think you're right, I don't think it'll work on Vista as the older 8.14.8.1065 driver only ever mentioned Windows 7 support :-

I'd guess that someone just added it on to the description without checking, especially considering the 8.14.8.1083 driver has no release notes yet.

For info I have had problems with this driver (8.14.8.1065) in a GMA 3650 equipped Shuttle nettop running Win 7 32bit. In some applications video had bad artifacts and in others the GUI flickered.

Solution I found was to upgrade to *.1077. Have noticed that *.1065 remains the latest recommended version for GMA 3650 - feel that this should be updated.
