regards
I really would like to upgrade from the extremely buggy 93.81 driver sometime soon, but seeing as how their last driver release for anyting that wasn't Vista or an 8800 was over 2 months ago, I don't thing I will see a new driver any time soon.
they also relased a new 8800 series driver for win xp regards
8800+XP:Check
Others+Vista:Check
Others+XP:Houston we have a problem
So, while the users of Vista or 8800 series cards and get to enjoy pretty decent WHQL certified drivers, the users of older cards that still use XP have been stuck using the complete pile of crap driver know as 93.71 for over two months now.
But again, you seem to be missing one important part of my post, WHQL, and the fact that NVidia isn't aren't actually releasing the drivers this way. They are simply hacked to work with other cards.
2.) Did I mention why they aren't WHQL certified? No. Well it is a minor issue of them breaking SLI in all the lower cards. I have never successfully been able to enable SLI on my 7900GTs using any driver higher than the 93.81. Whenever I try the machine just reboots instantly and SLI remains disabled.
