Nvidia ForceWare 185.20!!

these drivers worked so darn good in f.e.a.r they kept kicking me from the game cuz i was killing everyone in sight,fassstttttttttttttt

 

Same here

 

I had massive crashing with Fallout 3 trying to change from a subway to an above ground level. Tired it 10 or so times, went back to the 180.48, though I will say I had about a 10 fps gain with the new ones. I hope they get it worked out.

 

Thanks, burebista!

That explains a lot...

 

Since installing this driver I've had numerous crashes and hard-locks (more so than 181.00). Doing more testing/gaming, but, it's likely this driver is unstable.

 

hm i had none yet, i've been using them for what 2days now and still witohut any gpu related probs, maybe they're buggy for vista and sli users..

 

well Im not sure how this has happened...

but I am running a Toshiba Satallite X205-S7483 running windows XP and have been using modified video drivers ever since I installed XP(Toshiba only offers Vista drivers for this model). I am using a modified INF file that I got from laptopvideo2go.com I've tried it both with their copy of the driver as well as the copy available here....same error with both.

I get this:




ANY help would be much appreciated

 

Sorry for youre issues, just had to say: WOW, youre desktop is full of icons. I never seen a desktop so fully used? I have 3 icons tops! Sorry just had to say it, hope you find help.

This is no good for Lotro DX 10,its worse.:biggun:

The DX10 shadows is removed to certain point.
It only shows up on grass and characters body.

 

lol I know...but between running several different websites, school, and work. No matter how many times I organize it doesnt take long for it to build up again. :war:

 

Anyone else have any experience with Fallout 3 and these drivers? Or anything based on the Source engine? (L4D, TF2)

 

Yea they crash rarely what others didnt and you have a kind of flickering
on the wall paints or the green smoke i rad areas....

Too bad, they perform great on cod4/waw :wanker:

 

These drivers are bad, after installing them yesterday after logging in my monitor just said no signal, uninstalled them and all was well, cheers Steve.

 

Well, I did some L4D testing just now and I gotta say, Ambient Occlusion makes it even darker even though no detail is lost. I recommend setting it to Low.

Gonna try Fallout 3 for an hour or so, I'll report back.

 

example gta 4 anbient occlusion hig settings looks good but lower frames :biggun: but playable

 

The reason AO in L4D causes the screen to be darker is, that the sky/surroundings, from which the AO map is created/calculated, is pretty dark. I design a lot in Cinema4D for my education, and when I created scenes with AO, they were dark too because of the darker surroundings.

 

does anyone know if ambient occulsion wil remain vista-only?

i hope not, actually using win7, but i think ill keep XP a lil more (altho win7 seems great), this driver its like unfinished (no profiles drop box etc...) so i guess its just an early "beta" for check how ambient occlusion works in real pc

 

18 FPS is NOT playable
