Vid card Driver
« on: January 05, 2008, 11:02:34 PM »
Anyone know what the best Vid card driver for NVIDIA FX5600. I tryed the updated driver and it did not work correct( Rebooted computer). I just installed a new HD and OS. IM using the 77.77 drivers that I used on my old puter. They work but its choppy when flying. Current Sys is Windows Xp sp2 P4 1gig ram

Many people who have updated to the latest Forceware version 169.21 have had problems including me.  It's not very popular.  However, I have been using Forceware version  163.75 and it's been working great.  I noticed that since I upgraded from 93.71, things look a bit nicer on the screen.  Also, if you download and install Ntune, you'll be able to access the more advanced features (if you card supports them) and overclocking features.  If you want to use any Forceware version before 97.31, you can use Coolbits to gain those features (Coolbits will change and add a few lines in your registry and it's totally safe).

Which card do you have?

Colors look better or is it something else like more frame rates?

For all older cards (including the FX line) use 61.44 drivers.
