Nvidia Drivers 195.81

Weird my Desktop looks about the same with 191.07

 

i had to use afr1 or afr2 with l4d1 back then to make it work, might be worth to try

 

a bit offtopic but at what voltage do you run that quad to be stable @ 4ghz? lol :nerd:

 

1.45v.If i play with GTL it will run with lower Vcore

 

ok tnx

 

2 benches

Not bad so far. The new PhysX seems to run Mirror's Edge slightly better also.

*sigh*

Sticking with 186.91 until Nvidia sorts out this mess!

 

Hmm, I'm getting major slowdown in Avatar demo, just as I get out the Copter/Plane my FPS drop to 28 and they were in the 50's before this driver.

GPU is not clocking down in game as I checked with RT.

 

i play this game too m8 no problem still with my gtx295 and my girls gtx 9800..hmmmm

 

Reboot seems to have fixed it for now.

 

what mess m8ty?

 

I was on 186.18. and only the new stalker benchmark didn't work. Works fine in xp with this driver...still testing.

 

I don't understand all these reports of "it's fixed this and that" and "it a really bad driver" etc.

According to nVidia:

Link if you want to see it: http://www.nvidia.co.uk/object/win7_winvista_64bit_195.81_beta_uk.html

That's it. Nothing else. So surely any other fixes or breakages you guys are seeing are related to something else.

Just my 2P.

 

Fixing stuff in flash might fix games.....

 

working great here..

 

Do you really not have a clue m8 ?

You think all that's change is in that little read me, try grabbing the actual proper change log .PDF.

See the part that's now fixed I mentioned in my 1st post, no mention of it there but its now fixed.


Nvidia and ATI both fix issues and break working things with new drivers.

Sometimes they get it right and fix issues and cause no new issues.

 

i dont care what nvidia say it has fixed i know when 2 of my 4 graphics cards are not returning to 2d clock speeds,this driver has finally fixed this problem.

 

+10!!!! I use Nhancer also when new drivers come out to import the new profiles into my 186.24 drivers!!! Works like a charm and keeps my GTX295 happy

 

Download this http://www29.zippyshare.com/v/39025982/file.html

This is the NvApps.XML file from driver 195.81 ,You can use this NvApps also on older drivers so you get sli support for "Mass Effect II" , "AVATAR" & " Battlefield Company 2" and all the new games that are included in this beta driver. Also true sli for "Operation flashpoint dragon rising" what is not included in 195.81.

First delete the older NvApps.XML in both folders and then=
Copy / Paste new NvApps.XML in C:/Windows/system32 and in C:/ProgramData(hidden folder)/NVIDIA.

I did this with driver 191.07 and i got sli for all the new games also COD6 with no problem , except DIRT2 doensn't support sli , patch needed from codemaster , they are working at it.

Second option , play around with nHAncer.

 

with these driver DiRT2 doesn't stutter/lag anymore!
much more stable!!
but haven't tested any other games
