I'm pleased to announce (incase you aren't already aware) that nVidia has just today released the latest version of their Detonator drivers - v52.16!
Get them now at www.nvidia.com - file weighs in at around 18.5meg.
Having installed them myself, I am happy to report a massive improvement in performance in Halo - I'm now running the game at 1280x1024 with max graphical settings and, for the most part, the game runs smoothly! This is compared to before when the game absolutely crawled even in the smallest of fight sequences.
Not sure of how the drivers affect other games - think I read somewhere that it may even have a slightly adverse affect, but I can't confirm this for the time being - look forward to seeing how it handles Max Payne 2 tomorrow though! :D

At the fifty's already??
My 44.0 something is still running perfectly, so I see no reason to upgrade yet.

Strange logic indeed, but if you're happy then so be it! :)

Oh forgot tosay it's a GeForce3, so there really is no reason. :)
Catastrophic Error when going into the new drivers display properties.
Thanks.
Thanks.
But halo ran a treat
New drivers? I hope against hope that they can somehow combat the shittiness of my sparkle card.

Sparkle arent bad. Creative Labs make the best quality geforce cards though.

Yes, but MAXX PCs don't come with Creative FX cards, do they? Just gay Sparkle ones that like to choke on games they should cruise through, and randomly force your PC to erset every now and then.
You cant change the card in the tweakable options?
