Hey all,
Just wondering if anyone had any specific experience with running drivers on such an old/crappy card. Its in my gf's comp and she does ZERO 3D anything, but I'm getting ready to redo the ol' beast and start it fresh w/SP2. Thus, I was wondering if there were any do's/don'ts as far as drivers go for this thing. I really want the most stable, painless drivers for a 2D only environment. No funky features, nothing. She watches TV, movies, does internet, AIM, etc. Pretty simple. Thx in advance

id proably use just the built in 2d drivers that ship with xp, which is all i use on my geforce2mx at work. the machine is only used for tested hardware and virus scans of customers computers

I wouldn't, 2d performance is uber slow like that. Honestly, any WHQL Nvidia driver should and will be extremely stable while doing 2d only. So just stick with the newest drivers.
