NVIDIA Forceware 174.74 Windows XP & Vista Download (all cards)

I already had the beta version of these (just hadnt got around to installing), so I grabbed the WHQL and just stuck the beta inf in there to get it to install.
Looks like its working fine.

 

?

Why isnt anyone calling them betas ? When DLd ...

174.74_geforce_winvista_32bit_english_beta

Why are they listed WHQL .. ?

ForceWare 174.74 Vista (32-bit) WHQL

 

> Great to hear good sim. results. But have you tried these with Grand Prix Legends? All drivers crash GPL in pit lane on 8800GTS-512, XP, 32. Thanks, -Greg[/QUOTE]

Does anyone know? And will use of AA ever be restored?

 

Hmm I am having no problems using SVHS out to my 27" TV.

Even gives me up to 1024x768

 

ok thanks guys. i thought the WHQL ones included some improvments from the lastest 174.74 beta. and yes 174.74 beta works just fine and great on my machine, tnx very much.

 

Frontlines: Fuel of War plays much smoother with older beta 174.60
(Vista x64, GTS G92)

I get very close to constant 60fps with all settings maxed out (except motion blur) @ 1680x1050, forced 16xAF from NV CPL. It also has given best 3DM06 points.

I've got a old spare HDD, installed XP x64 on that and tested 169.44 & 174.74: 169.44 was better/faster :O I saw max 0,5% gain using XP x64 vs Vista x64

 

Can you please tell me, why this happens?



Win Vista Premium x86, xFx 7950GTeXtreme

 

lads, off topics. anyone know in nHancer , in the compatibility tabs, there's AA compatibility. there's a list of option which i don't know what it is for. SO the question is, what does it do? :wanker:

 

same here...

vista x64 8800 ultra

 

I have the same problem as those above. 169.44 install just fine.

 

If thats the WHQL set, then that will be because the WHQL set are only for the 9 series.

 

So only the betas will work on the 8 series?

 

thx for the info guys, i had problems with crysis to with this driver the beta version, so the WHQL version dont support our XFX 8800 ultra?

 

Yes, but they are the exact same drivers.

 

i already try the beta but makes problems...install it, restart and windows ask me the vga driver...why?

(system cleaned with driver sweeper and everything is fine)

 

when installing these - it gives an error saying no drivers are compatible with my hardware ?!!?!

BFG 8800 GTX
whats the best drivers version for my card then ?

 

Read above jeees!!!

Install the beta version.

 

jees - dont answer if Q bothers you that much.
thanks anyways.

 

Thank you... i have the idea that these drivers they have lessr IQ that the 174.70.
Somebody have the same perception??

 

I dunno, this driver cut my framerate in World in Conflict a lot. Almost all high settings @ 1680x1050, I would get an average of 52fps with the benchmark using 174.53 I believe (damn, can't remember with all these driver releases coming out). Now, I get about 30 avg. Even after lowering my res to 1440x900, I couldn't reach 50+ avg with this driver.
