Hello, what video card drivers are best for a NVIDIA card? I just installed a new card and the driver / utility package that came with it, I also checked the card's manu. website to be sure that what was on the CD was current, and it is the nost current as per the manu. I've gone to the NVIDIA website and found that the Detonator drivers version is old, 22.50 is what came with the card and the most current is 23.11, but here's the problem, the drivers that came with the card are not reference drivers, where as the NVIDIA drivers are.

I guess what I'm asking is, what do you guys use? Also there has been a problem with a game not running, and in going back and forth with them, you need to install the latest drivers, I have the latest drivers, thing.

The Video Card Spec: Gainward GeForce3 PowerPack !!!, Golden, Ti/450, 64mb, 4.0ns, DDR, TV Sample, with ExpertTool ver 2.79, VGA Driver ver 4.13.01.2250.

Again what would you do and use.

Thank you
Jim

I've had problems before using NVidia's reference drivers, and not just the Detonator XP drivers. The 12.41 reference drivers strangely removed a number of options on my display settings (overclocking, adjusting the time for your monitor to automatically shut off when idle, other problems). I have a Guillemot 3D Prophet II MX card, and I've never had a problem using Guillemot's revisions of the drivers. I'm using their revision of the 14.10's, and this card runs fine and stable.

You said you've got a Gainward card? I don't know if they do this, but try checking to see if they make their own edits to the Nvidia drivers. I'd use their revisions as they're the actual manufacturer of your card.
