I used to run Detonator 6.30 drivers with w2k. They worked fine for GPL with d3d patch (vsync=off). After I reinstalled my system, I installed Detonator 6.50 drivers, and now I get bad clipping in GPL (vsync=off) or 25-30fps framerate (vsync=on). I don't want to install 6.30 drivers back anymore, because Nascar 4 needs opengl-performance, and opengl seems to be better in 6.50. Has anyone had the same problem with GPL and what drivers should I install to make things fly again? :) -- Mika Takala [email hidden]
I'm using the detonator 6.50 (the fastest and most compatable so far) drivers on my win2k sysytem witha PIII and Geforce DDR and GPL looks and runs great. You shouldn't really need Vsync off except for benchmarking and it shouldn't really make such a big difference. Without more info on your setup i can't really give you an aswera part from the fatc that the 6.50's should be slightly quicker than 6.30's. I've tried 7.52's which are pretty quick and run fine in games but I had a mouse cursor duplication problem so I went back to 6.50. -- Some Call Me Tim
The 7.52's are ment to be by far the best win2k drivers but they don't suport coolbits. To use coolbits with them after you install them just drop the nvcpl.dll file from any other 6.xx driver that suports coolbits into your \WINNT\system32 folder. you can d/l them here: http://www.reactorcritical.com/ Alex "Mika Takala" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:98g65l$kmi$[email hidden]... > I used to run Detonator 6.30 drivers with w2k.
