Marco, CUDA is an architechture built in to GPU's, if you have a CUDA capable videocard (Any Nvidia card of the 9000 or 200 series) then the current driver from NVIDIA will have support for it, just go to the website and download the latest Vista driver release for the video card you have (Assuming you have a capable CUDA video card)

Go to http://www.nvidia.com/ and in the search box write CUDA. It will ask you if you know whaat your GPU is and ask if you want it to look for the CUDA drivers compatible with your nvidia GPU. If you have an ATI GPU, go to ATI. Some ATI GPU's do support CUDA. Be sure that the driver you download is at least CUDA 2.2.
