Sivy Posted October 30, 2003 Share Posted October 30, 2003 nvidia have released their new 'Forceware' driver for the g-force and tnt graphics cards. http://www.nvidia.com/object/winxp_2k_52.16 anyone using them? if so, what are they like? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StormHammer Posted October 30, 2003 Share Posted October 30, 2003 Thanks for the heads-up. Those drivers are for the WinXP/2000 OS. If you can't find the drivers you need, whatever your OS...I can recommend http://www.guru3d.com who usually have a whole range of both supported and unsupported drivers for each of the different versions of Windows. I'm downloading the Win98/ME 52.16 drivers from there right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tyrion Posted October 31, 2003 Share Posted October 31, 2003 My 5200 Ultra froze up when I used those drivers, the games I play the most(and they use all different engines) would freeze within seconds. These drivers really do seem to have a big hit-and-miss with the cards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So thank you to those who tried them out and spared me the trouble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GUNNER Posted October 31, 2003 Share Posted October 31, 2003 I too have heard bad things about the new drivers. If the old ones work, no need to get gready and screw things up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[RAA]-=Chi3f=- Posted November 3, 2003 Share Posted November 3, 2003 I upgraded to the 52.16 drivers during a LAN party last week and it totally jacked my settings to hell! Good thing I saved all my drivers from before cause this one sucks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Gnarly Posted November 3, 2003 Share Posted November 3, 2003 Took me an hour to fix the driver after i got this one, i do NOT suggest downloading this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
