Nvidia Drivers

Post #1by ElPelado » 27.10.2003, 17:32

I downloaded the last driver from nvidia.com. I dont know which version it is, but the file names is 52.16
Shoul I install it or not? I have on of the last versions and everythig in celestia works, so should i update to the last one? I mean, is it possible that it may cause some problems? Has anybody tested it?


I have the Project IGI game and I read that it has some problems with som nvidia drivers, and it does: I can not see the cursor in the game. Updating it may solve that problem?

Downloaded, installed, and working very well

yeah I was worried that these would have a problem, from some of the forum post I have been reading.
But for me they work very well.

nVidia 52.16 driver

I loaded the new nVidia driver for my humble GeForce 4 MX440 but found the modeling on spacecraft orbiting Earth became 'flat' when clouds were turned on.
Reinstalled driver 45.23 and it runs sweet again.

Here's your link to the download archive list of Nvidea drivers for Windows XP / 2000, where you should be able to find version 45.23;
