Re: Nvidia releases 28.32

ALOT of reports on alt.comp.periph.videocards.nvidia of BIG issues with these drivers, like NO property tabs after rightclick/Display property's etc. Be warned. Alan.

Haven't fully tested with games yet, but installed and appears to be fine here. All tabs are there. Perhaps people aren't paying attention to the warning to shut down any running programs, including AV first? -- Chris H.

So are these offical drivers then since they are at Nvidia's website? MadDAWG

Really, you ought to let nvidia know then, as those drivers were not meant to be released, The following is from www.3dgpu.com: -------------- OK folks, I just got off the phone with NVIDIA. It seems as if someone uploaded the wrong driver set to their site, hence the missing NVIDIA Control Panel applets. The correct ones should be available in the next hour or so, I'll let you know... Matt: From what I understand when I talked to NVIDIA, we should be getting the 28.80 drivers today. I asked NVIDIA about the Digital Vibrance issue, where it shuts off when you start a game, and they said that it has been fixed. That's surely good news. -------------- Best of luck ;) Alan "Chris H." <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:DCpm8.337367$[email hidden]...

They don't appear to be but they work fine with MultiRes.

Yep. I have all my settings on a large index card and I go through and reset them after I completely remove then reinstall new drivers. I use the Gainward tool to reset my clock and memory settings. I know a few others who have seen a decrease in performance as well. -- Scott B.

I actually returned the first card and when I got the same errors on the second I searched the web and found others with Gainward Golden sample cards (Ti 550 also) having trouble with the 23.11 drivers. I use the 21.83 drivers. I wondered if the 23.11 drivers might have had a problem with the Golden sample cards being overclocked in the bios settings. I use no overclocking utility and the Nvidia driver thinks the card has 200/450 clock settings. Norman

Well I think we now have the reverse of the 23.11s. The 23.11s were great on WinXP but sucked big time on Win9x/ME. The 28.32 work great on my WinME setup. I gained about 100 points but more important I got rid of some issues I had with the other drivers. For example I now can run the RatBag Dirt Track games again. I never tried GPL with the 27.xx drivers, but I heard of issues with on menus. With the 28.32 I have menus in GPL so I'm very happy with them. BTW- NR2002 loads just fine. I heard of issues when going into the car taking some time, but no problems here. MadDAWG

I've been using the 23.11s ever since I've had a GeForce 3 card and I haven't found any other drivers that are as stable or produce as high a 3dMark2001 SE score on. Perhaps it's because I'm on Win2K Pro. -- Scott B.
