Default 7 MB NVidia Forceware Package

This is probably not new to a lot of people, but Guru3d.com makes compressed versions of Nvidia forceware graphics drivers, reducing them from 17MB to 7. You can download them from their site. Not all the links they provide are to the 7MB file, but I know at least the United States mirror had it.

I believe 3dchipset.com does that to newly available beta drivers, as well as the official drivers.

Good for people on 56k I suppose.

Computer specs are.. interesting, but yeah.

Guru3D is awesome. I can't keep up with their drivers. I'm currently using the 61.76 driver and I'm really happy with it.
