where are the whql drivers from Nvidia?

[nemesismk2]

Does anyone know when we'll be getting some new whql drivers, the 41.09 drivers were released in December and still havn't been granted whql status.

Trying visiting nvidia.com for the drivers.
Send them an email about the WHQL.
Their newest are already WHQL (december)

The v41.09 drivers on the Nvidia website aren't WHQL because they are WHQL Candidate which means that Microsoft is still testing them.

I only use official drivers featured on Nvidia's website.

If you don't see them on NVidia's site, and you only use Official drivers, the conclusion is they don't exist!

I am posting an answer to your thread nemesis only to give credit to someone who acts like me in the drivers' issue...
I am also troubled about the 2 months time for the WHQL certification from Microsoft and I can only think that nVidia will not eventually post a certified version but will jump straight to the next 42.xx set. This has happened in the past too if u look at the drivers archive page in their site...
As for the web posted beta versions like these in guru3D, I am sorry but I am not willing to turn my precious machine in a pile of experimental binaries...There are many people out there to do this for me....After all, take a look at the beta drivers that came to anandtech with the GForceFX-do u like the artifacts with the 4xAA enabled?? I guess not....
By the way, the 41.09 is a solid set for me...no bugs and great improvement in openGL performance

I am the same way with WHQL drivers. I've been using the 40.72 (WHQL) drivers for sometime now, however last night I was forced to use 41.09 (WHQL candidate) because of the problems Unreal2 has with 40.XX drivers. I was very hesitant to install the 41.09, fearing it would screw up my system, or my other games.

So far so good, however there is a little unwanted mouse movement in U2 with the 41.09 drivers, unlike the 40.72, which displayed no unnecessary mouse movement though only texture corruption.

Someone also recommended guru3d and some beta drivers, simple answer was no thanks! I will not install beta anything on my system.
