Detonator 12.60 drivers....how are they?

[Chriz]

Anyone tried the 12.60 with a geforce 2, under Windows 2000 especially? How are they so far?

Bump for a very good question!

Though they raise 3dmark scores, Ive noticed they still have the problems with anisotropy that all the 12.xx drivers do. Unable to force it for any D3D game and it's also broken in OpenGL games like Tribes 2 that have an in game option.

It didnt go to well on my ME installation. It said that the driver wasn't exactly correct.

I reinstalled the 12.40 quickly.

oh yeah, I use a geforce 2 ultra.

i went from the official det 3 drivers on nvidia's site (v6.5) to the 12.60 beta and even though it brought my 3dmark2k1 scores up a little (~50), my fps in counter-strike is flutuating now. I used to get 99 fps solid. now i get a flutuating 70-99 which is pretty annoying. and NO, i did not change any settings. i think i will switch back to the official drivers.

I got an email from NVIDIA that they were going to release their updated driver tomorrow. It said to check their website tomorrow.
