Salute aces

I just installed the new drivers and found a slight FPS increase. Following results have been recorded:

Duron700
GeForce256 (SDR)

1024 Res; 32bit

5.33 drivers:
- in Tower:                  33 FPS
- B17, A1, N, engine idle:   33 FPS
- G10, A1, N, engine idle:   33 FPS

6.16 drivers:
- in Tower:                  38 FPS
- B17, A1, N, engine idle:   30 FPS
- G10, A1, N, engine idle:   36 FPS

not very conclusive results but at least not worse...  

btw read on the boards that the drivers are optimized for GeForce2

Thanks Lars      I have a Diamond Viper V770 Ultra and if I can squeeze more out of it I'll be happy. I'll post results here tonight.
