Anyone installed these yet?By the way wd40, I hate you for having that computer :p ha I love this thing. I upgrade every 3 years or so and always go top of the line. Just waiting for the Microsoft Wireless Entertainment Desktop 8000 to be released and I'll be set for awhile.

LittleNeutrino Veteran Posted February 18, 2007 Veteran Share Posted February 18, 2007 so is there a reason to update the software to this one yet or should we wait Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimbo11883 Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 Downloading now... Anyone got any results? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoochieMamma Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 The guru3d forums show that performance is about the same for most people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimbo11883 Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 What about stability/features? With a build number increase of just 1, I can most likely answer my own question and say no new features and just as stable. :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pdoconnell Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 Download link's dead, NVidia asked them to pull the download. Doesn't say if it wasn't ready for release or if it has a system nuking bug, but just for fun anyone want to mirror it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wd40 Posted February 19, 2007 Author Share Posted February 19, 2007 ya I bet they were pulled because they are WHQL and nVidia isn't ready for the WHQL drivers to be released yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoochieMamma Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 ya I bet they were pulled because they are WHQL and nVidia isn't ready for the WHQL drivers to be released yet. Maybe they told them to pull them off the site as they don't want people to know that the performance/stability was about the same if not worse for everyone, and everyone expects the WHQL drivers to kick ass? :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Malisk Posted February 21, 2007 Share Posted February 21, 2007 These are now on nvidia.com too: http://www.nvidia.com/object/winvista_x86_100.65.html http://www.nvidia.com/object/winvista_x64_100.65.html The changelog over 100.64 is really short though (as expected, perhaps): • NVIDIA Control Panel: Application profiles do not work properly on systems with multiple user accounts • GeForce 7 Series: 1080i overlay playback quality is poor on 1080i devices. These drivers are WHQL certified though, so that's good news at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Malisk Posted February 21, 2007 Share Posted February 21, 2007 Cool, it looks like either since 100.64 or 100.65, my S-video out now suddenly works* in color and it takes my PAL setting! I know this problem was shared by a number of others on the nVidia boards too, across multiple 8800 brands, so it didn't just seem to be my setup. Sweet, this was one of the few "must have" things left for me. lol, being happy over color picture... Shows where the level of these drivers still are :laugh: * = regardless which one, that change was surely not documented, so you may wish to check out these drivers regardless of changelogs.

Ar3s Posted February 21, 2007 Share Posted February 21, 2007 The official release for these drivers are out. The betas shouldn't be posted here, there are just too many of them. Its like bills you just don't pay that my attention to the unimportant ones just the serious ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
msbenn67 Posted February 21, 2007 Share Posted February 21, 2007 The certifed drivers aren't much to get excited about. There little more than an minor bug fix release. Still beta by all means. I have two, very expensive and, currently, useless 8800 GTX XXX series cards from XFX. Running these on Vista with these drivers in SLI mode provides absolutely no performance improvement. Is this the norm? Just wondering if anyone is seeing any performance boost in SLI on Vista. BTW, I'm running Vista Ultimate 64-bit. System: Athlon 64 X2 5600 (3.1GHz), 4GB OCZ DDR2 PC2-6400 Platinum Rev 2 Dual Channel, Dual XFX geForce 8800 GTX XXX series, WD Raptor SATA 150G & 74G Drives, Two Maxtor DiamondMax Plus 9 SATA 160G Drives in RAID 0, ThermalTake 750W PSU, CL Inspire 7.1 Speakers, Two Samsung SynchMaster 225BW LCDs.

DrivenDaily Posted February 21, 2007 Share Posted February 21, 2007 I am running x86 Business with my 7800GTX and the screen flips out occasionally (flashes, random artifacts) for a split second and then goes back to normal. Anyone else experiencing this? I've said this before, but its like a rave i don't want to be at. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NateB1 Posted February 21, 2007 Share Posted February 21, 2007 I installed these drivers (using the modded .inf) on my Dell Inspiron 9300 laptop with GeForce 6800 Go, and Aero stopped working. I ran the Windows Performance tests and received a rating of 1.0. 100.64 works fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
