NVIDIA GeForce 190.38 Beta Drivers Released
NVIDIA seems to have a big update for its GeForce driver suite underway, with the bump in version number from the 186 series to 190. The first release in the series carries the unsupported beta tag. Version 190.38 beta introduces a series of changes as indicated in the release notes documents (for Windows 7, Vista, and XP), though the list of supported NVIDIA products remains largely unchanged from its previous release. Important changes are as follows:

BTW this is the second 190.x series beta driver, I've been using 190.15 for a couple of weeks.
. . . . . and it dropped my fps in games
i have a 9800gtx 65nm g92....
why do i dont find it..could it be its only for the 55nm cards?

uninstall it if you don't need it.
Have it running with 186.18 too, even though I did know about it before installing. I was jsut interested if you could use it for games with red/green glasses, like so said. Takes 22megs of memory for nothing, maybe I'll kill it as I don't even have glasses to test it on :)
Power management stuff sounds interesting, anyone care to post a screenie about it and is 2D mode selectable for GT200 cards?
