I really want to update both my geforce and nforce drivers but for a 56k user the files are just too big. Is there a better way to get them on a cd or something like how I got service pack 1 from microsoft. Or maybe even just a package that is only for your graphics card rather than every card ever released by nvidia.
There probably isn't any other way but I thought I would ask anyway.

Do English mags like PC format have the drivers on the discs?

Don't think so. If you have a friend with broadband you can use that? Or try contacting the manufacturer and see if they can send you the drivers?

insanekiwi: How could it be cos of laziness?? Like I cant be bothered to sit on a chair for an hour letting my pc transfer data from a server. Its because I cant afford to be on the internet for hours because of how it ties up the phone which is needed for more important stuff.
If you cant answer the question in a thread, don't post.
