    Hi everybody!<br>
    I just used SoftQuadro with 12.41 and 12.60 with my GeForce2 MX but I can´t have any improvement in 3D MAX after that. I know it is working because Sisoft Sandra says it is a Quadro2 MXR in the OpenGL Video Information. Should I install the MAXtreme drivers? Have anyone tried it with a GeForce2 MX?<br>
    <br>
    Thanks a lot!

    Yup, MAXtreme will help you to boost performance in 3DS. You can find 3DSMax benchmarks here (without SoftQuadro/with SoftQuadro and with MAXtreme): <A HREF="http://members.sitegadgets.com/tnaw_xtennis/board/3423.html" TARGET=_blank>http://members.sitegadgets.com/tnaw_xtennis/board/3423.html</A>

    Hi Unwinder.<br>
    <br>
    Can you please update the SoftQuadro to at the Nvidia official 12.21 drivers or later<br>
    <br>
    I would like to know what happends if i try to patch the AliasWavefront specific drivers (6.46). <br>
    The softquadro does not look like a generic patch but rather a version based patch cause it contains data for 631, 649, 667, 717, 752, 1040, 1101, 1220, 1240 only<br>
    <br>
    thanks a lot<br>

    SoftQuadro works fine with all currently available 6.xx and higher drivers.

    SoftQuadro contains universal patch script, which works with all currently available Detonator drivers v6.xx and higher. Patch scripts also contain certification info for some drivers, which I had tested with SoftQuadro. SQ will work with other drivers to, but it just will give a warning (as in your case) thah it had not been tested with it. It's ok.

    That´s right! It´s the same message I received with 12.60. I was only sure it was working when SiSoft Sandra said in the OpenGL Video Information it was a Quadro 2 MXR. It also worked with 12.41.<br>
    Hey Alexey, wich det. version you think it´s better to work with SoftQuadro and MAXtreme?<br>
    Thanks again! <IMG SRC="smileys/wave.gif"> <br>

    I don't know coz I'm not using MAXtreme. But AFAIK MAXtreme is independent driver so I suppose that it will work fine with all Detonator drivers.
