    Release Highlights:
    This driver is recommended for the StarCraft II beta.

    It supports GeForce 6, 7, 8, 9, 100, 200, and 300-series desktop GPUs and ION desktop GPUs.

    This release adds compatibility fixes for the StarCraft II beta and for some DirectX 8 applications but is otherwise identical to version 197.13.

    So not really an update :(
    Driver released:
    DriverVer = 03/20/2010, 8.17.11.9725

    Because it simply fixes some bugs for Starcraft II beta and Dx8 games.

    Yes it is.

    I am in the Starcraft 2 beta, AND I like my older games (Like Max Payne 2), so I can finally use a 197 series driver.

    Downloading now.

    Edit: Well, Max Payne 2 works, and the System Information tab work. Double yey!

    System Information worked with the earlier drivers too *unless* you overclocked the GPU and then it would return an empty Display tab. Can you confirm that it works when the GPU is overclocked please?

    Mhhh im using 197.13 and downloading this driver atm.

    I have no problems with dxva, enabled in my divx control panel and media player. I used my vids and also the wildlive.wmv file in win7/samples to test and there is no flicker.

    Do i something wrong to see this bug?

    Maybe you could try to update directx to feb2010 version....?
