    hello,<br>
    <br>
    I've patched the 12.41 driver. I've been to the system to reinstall the driver I had by the patched driver and.. when I look at the control panel it still tells : "GeForce 256 " <IMG SRC="smileys/frown.gif"><br>
    <br>
    could someone help me ? I'm french and I don't understand all the explanations on the websites...<br>

    Is it so difficult to read FAQ?

    Hello,<br>
    <br>
    sorry, I've read it but I havn't understood.<br>
    <br>
    I am a newsgroup user so I read all the faq before sending request but it's an english site with technical terms. I'm sorry to send questions that may have answers in the faq but it's not a way to not search info....<br>
    <br>
    If you want to aswer me : I work with win2000; on a elsa erasorX2 32Mo DDram and the softs I'd like to improve are mainly 3dsmax4 & blender.<br>
    <br>
    So, anyway, have a nice day <IMG SRC="smileys/smile.gif"><br>

    take it easy man,<br>
    <br>
    the softq only patch the GL part of the driver, the card still report itself as g4 but the driver behaves as if it is a quadro<br>
    <br>
    if you want to verify that all works, just open quake3 and check the driver info in the settings. you should see quadro<br>
    <br>
    you can also d/l spec glpref ( <A HREF="http://www.spec.org" TARGET=_blank>www.spec.org</A> ) run the benchmark, and check the log messages for the card( it reports quadro for me )<br>
    <br>
    hopes it works<br>
