If you search the archives of this mailing list you will find some discussions about System Effects.

Does anyone know if it is possible to get a WHQL signature for a driver like this? I'm passing just about all the HCT 12.1 tests, but I'm having trouble finding information about submitting software-only drivers. I'm concerned that it will not be able to play protected content under Vista.
