ok its done..first i downloaded the drivers again, then i removed the current 2710 drivers rolling them back to July 1st drivers of Windows XP, then restarting, then choosing these drivers, and now thier installed :p

I'm glad it works out fine

;)

Ok, I've tried each of the three leaks of the 27.xx drivers, and they keep getting better each time!!! So far I've had no lock ups or any freezes, and no infinite loops! Looks like Nvidia, VIA, and XP got things straightened out after those crap 23.11 drivers! Plus the nView settings are really cool. Let's hope once these drivers go official, they'll be even better than they are now!! :)

incase there are people who dont like 27xx's but want nview stuff then heres how to keep them:

1) install 27xx drivers

2) setup nview the way you want it & make sure the option to add nview to normal windows is ON

3) go back to old drivers

the nview settings will stay and you can use pre 27xx drivers and they do support transparent :)

how come i never had the WinXP, nVidia and VIA infinite loop error problem ya'll keep talking about. I've tried ever leaked nVidia driver and they all worked fine.. i don't know which one was the best so far cuz i dind't see any noticable difference in the framerates in games or smoother anything but i like having the latest EVERYTHING :) so that's why i keep getting them.. :)I'm about to install these 27.20s (no 26.XX for me) so wish me luck :)

I could be wrong, but from what I saw, most ppl that had the nvidia, XP, VIA infinite loop problems were ppl with the KT266a mobo and a geforce3 video card. I had the probs and that's what I'm using. Anyway, these new drivers, 27.20 are the best for me since 21.83. I LOVE them!

Funny.. I updated from 23.12 to 27.20 and the update went fine except it didn't replace the NVDESK32.DLL file, since under Driver version information it lists all other files as 27.20 except nvdesk32.dll.. Any ideas? Should I update to 27.10 and then 27.20??

BTW - this explains why I can't access the nview settings..

Thanx

there is no nvdesk32 in the new drivers

you don't need it

    • You are clueless. The updates are done in the background so the next time you open Edge the updates are applied automatically. There is no need to close all your tabs. Just keep browsing like you normally do. Clearly you don't use Edge and are just one of those haters that complain for the sake of complaining.
    • I don't get this David. Can you explain it please.  
    • Microsoft is busy. Lots of changes to be released imminently for Windows server or soon. Also, lots happening for next version as well. Third party virus scanning software is being moved out of Kernel mode to avoid repeat of Crowdstrike incident. Windows Protected Mode and Windows Ready Print no longer require third party print drivers to be installed. New storage stack being developed. New NVME drivers now available for Windows Server 2025 to improve local NVME drive performance by 60+ percent. NVME-Of of fabric being worked on for next release to improve network access to NVME drives. ReFs (next file system) now has ability to boot and will become default file system in next release of Windows Server. ReFs improves on NTFS in several areas including resiliency and reliability and scalability. New update stack is being worked on to unify Windows updates, and updates for drivers and first party/3rd party application software. A stricter and more robust third-party driver certification program (ODI) is being worked on to improve performance, thermals, battery life, and reliability on modern Windows hardware by tightening how OEMs and IHVs (Intel, AMD, Qualcomm, NVIDIA, etc.) build and ship drivers. There is a tone more but too numerous to mention.
