Just tried all three drivers and on my system the 42.70 are the best yet (will see in real game testing whether it stays that way) 42.51 is the newest driver out get them here Mr Gurus Drivers
 
What VID CARD are you runnin them on???
 
I am lost without the E-mail notification:huh:

GF4 Ti4200 went back to 41.09 as the colours on medal of honor spearhead were nasty and washed out on the 42.70.....42.51 was buggy when just benchmarking and had a habit of setting my screen to one side after a reboot.
 
The 42.70 have the 41.50's readme file........
So are they fake?

I am using the 42.70 drivers now and so far I am happy with them.


:happy:
 
Yes using the Cat 3 drivers here have to say I like them

tinker,

u said you're using the 42.70 drivers, do this please and see if it happens to you. be at your desktop, with no windows up and get the display properties up and drag the window around in random movements. while doing this, see if you notice white window trails, like on an older system you would see the window leave trails from dragging it.
 
OK, I did that and no trails. I have mine set in transparent for the windows however......

I am using a PNY GF4 Ti4600...........
 
the 42.70 drivers work geat on my system and I see a small boost in performance, but a great difference in image quality. Things seem alot clearer and smother.

3dmark2001: 42.01 9203

42.70 9647

all on default settings and runnning at 1024x768x32
 
I changed the url on the Specs page so lets see if it works now.
 
it's working now tinker. i might retry those drivers once more, just for ole times sake lol
 
AGHHHHHHHH crap the new 42.70's dont work on mine I get them installed but the colors are all messed up its like I get 256 color mode ..... tried a couple of times and same results I am using the 41.09's and they are good ..... guess I will wait for the official release of the 42.70's :mad:
 
NView Problems?

Have any of you tried the Nview with the new drivers? When I installed them, and tried nView to Clone the view on my monitor and TV, movies would not play on the TV. They played fine on my Computer, but the screen was blank on the TV. Anyone else have this problem? I went back to 31.90 Drivers.
 
Its a bug that has been around a long time read my post Here and follow what it says and then your films will show up again.
 
no...but in another post by me it above it says there is a WHQL version out.
 
There's now new Detonator versions on this site.

42.30
42.81

I'm testing the benchmarks on these drivers so far (will edit this post as things change):

Asus GeForce4 Ti 4200 128 MB (AGP 8X)

42.86 -- 11216 (the *exact* benchmark I received on the 41.09 drivers, but this driver set detects my card as a 64 MB card)
42.30 (WHQL) -- 11197 (slight score difference, but this driver also detects my card as a 64 MB card)
42.70 -- 11032 (lower again, slightly, but, performance-wise, these are great! No more sync problems like I've had with all other driver sets I've used. Still says I have a 64 MB card, but, as these benchmarks have shown, it doesn't matter. I'm keeping these drivers for now.)

42.30 messed the graphics up in medal of honor spearhead.

42.86 fine in all my games.

Both benchmarked the same +/- 100 points.

GF4 Ti420064mb version

4286 here works great games look nicer and run very smooth

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(

Just did some crude math and I apparently joined almost 18yrs ago, how is that possible???
