Where do I go to find out what NForce driver version I have installed?

And why can't I use the 6.86 on my A8N-SLI Premium? In the A8N-SLI Premium thread they are recommending 6.70.

How do you determine which NForce driver version you are running?

Who's they? I use the 6.86 set and they are fine on my A8N-SLI Premium.

Folks in the big master thread about the A8N-SLI Premium.

Hmm, good to know they work for you. I might just update them. First I need to figure out what release I'm currently running though. No idea how to do that.

 

[Megatomic]

You need to look at the driver details for each component in your device manager to do that. Or perhaps ntune will tell you which driver versions you have installed.

I just rechecked the big A8N-SLI thread and I don't see anyone talking about the new drivers other than you and I. Can you link me to where they're saying that the new drivers are bad?

 

[yacoub]

Well for example, the post at the bottom of page 20 states
"6.70 is for A8N SLI Premium. 6.85 is for the A8N32 SLI Deluxe."

It's not that they're somehow bad, just possibly incompatible?
