Is it worth...installing Vista...now..When I say that..how is the performance compared to xp?

 

I've still got the same corrupted screen problem when running almost any game on my 7900 GT....so depressing.

 

SLI

YAY!!!

Downloading!

 

D/L Now....Ill let ya know what happens

 

Told you all lol, Now ! whos dumb lol

 

Same BSOD after install...as with the other ones, except 100.30...getting worried....what´s so special with the 100.30?

 

Explain...

 

Have you tried installing them without UAC turned on? I've had no problems installing any of the drivers so far but I run Vista x64 w/o UAC.

 

:beam:

 

What sort of corruption that is? missing/flashing textures, etc?
Check that your card is not overheating and that it is running on the stock frequencies.. and also try completely removing video drivers and reinstalling them from scratch.

 

You guys using driver cleaner pro 1.5 with Vista? Any issues?

 

Ive been just installing over the top.... Vista seems to be a bit more helpful without issues just installing on top..at least ive had no issues that is

 

No, havent tried that....just dont get why it always works perfect with 100.30´s.....

 

Bah! You guys are slow at testing these out. Brb.

Mike.

 

The normal scrambled screen:

It varies on the main menus of certain games, notably Madden 07 and Oblivion. This is Madden's main menu:

I was sure it would be fixed in this release, especially since I submitted two bug reports on it and have seen it reported in plenty of threads.

EDIT: Forgot to mention I always remove all traces of previous drivers, uninstalling the NVIDIA Drivers item in Add/Remove Programs, removing the display adapter in device manager, rebooting into safe mode, running Driver Cleaner 2.0, rebooting and installing.

 

Same here, I think that Driver Cleaner isn't very compatible with Vista BTW.. because the driver dll's names have changed from XP.. so I'm just installing on top too, some times I remove the old driver first, but I also haven't had any issues after not doing that.

As for the driver, tv-out is in color again! woot!!! But through composite out only, s-video still gives me the same black & white picture.. but who cares.. at least it works with the composite cable
Another thing which I've noticed is that CP is a bit faster, it takes less time to response..and the multi-display changes are faster too.

Back to testing now :cops:
