Why hasn't nvidia released ANY drivers for the non 8800 geforce family since last year NOVEMEBER?
 
It's been that long?

Surely they've released some pre 8800 series drivers for Vista?

As for XP, weren't the drivers already top-notch? Were there any bugs with them?

Also, perhaps they've been too busy creating drivers for the G80's and Vista? I dunno.

LOL... 93.71/93.81 top-notch? Yeah right...

NVIDIA's been really focused on the 8800's and Vista lately, so the modded driver community has had to take over a bit for driver upgrades for non-8800, Windows XP users.



Besides, when you consider that the last driver upgrade for Desktop non-8800 cards for Windows XP was in November, think about the fact that my GeForce Go 7900 GS in my laptop hasn't seen a new "official" driver since June of 2006, consider yourself lucky 😛 . LOL
 
These drivers are hardly perfect, lots of things need fixing, especially with the new games like Stalker and Tiberium Wars. Nvidia has gotten sooooo lazy.... I mean, I understand that they are concentrating on the 8800 series now but even those drivers are ****.

A preview of things to come, if AMD continues failing to put competitive pressure on them?

What issues are you having with the 93.71's?

I guess they do need to get some drivers out. I had thought that nVidia had pretty much perfected the GeForce 7's and XP, but maybe I'm wrong.
