What are the newest released Nvidia Detonator drivers?

[adavidw]

Hey,

I've got Detonator drivers version 3.0.8.2 installed on my computer. If I go to the Nvidia site to look for released drivers, it still shows 3.0.8.2 as being the latest. However, I just went to Windows Update, and it wants to download new drivers that are 3.0.8.7 to my machine? Has anyone else seen this? Has Nvidia released new drivers and forgot to update their web site?

I got that too, don't know what's up.

Never, and I mean NEVER, let windows update give you new hardware drivers.

You know how people say "never say never"? I'm saying never.

Unless you WANT a reason to use system restore. :|

Latest Dets are 30.82's....... don't bother with the 40's betas, all they do is increase 3dmark scores, nothing else

I find the latest 40.72's do a great job with Morowind.

Would 30.82's be best for GF3 Ti's as well? I think I'm still using 23.11.

While I'm at it, what about for GF2's?

i have had much luck with stability with the 30.82's.

Well, actually, I used it for my Cmedia 8738 cards. The v636 drivers were available on Windowsupdate for several months before Cmedia finally posted them to their OWN WEBSITE!!!

But other than that, I almost never even see driver updates at the WindowsUpdate site. This is weird now with the 3.0.8.7 drivers.
