I thought they sucked as well. The 23.12's relieved my infinite loop problem, the 27.10's brought it back. Installing the 23.12's increases your menu delay to 400ms and enables menu animation- even though these two are turned off under TweakUI. This driver is very unstable on my system, I couldn't even complete 1 run of 3dM2001 due to the infinite loop crashes. Anthony www.oc-athlonxp.com

Correction to my last post---I meant "Installing the 27.10's" (not 23.12's) :-)

Which %$^@ installed this driver? You seem somewhat retarded to me... If these drivers were official then you could complain!

I've just tried them, ans was kinda dissapointed about nView. Ok, it looks better than previous twin view, but why no one has coplained about TV-out? There's absolutely no way of getting overscan, and I hate black borders on my TV. Since it worked fine on 98 and ME, why there's not a good mode on XP? I've been waiting long time for detonator to mature on XP, but ir seems nVidia has forgotten about tv-out. Also, there's still a mess between XP's multimonitor and TwinView, both work at the same time, and XP's one lets me diferent resolution on each display and TwinView controls no. I cannot understand. About benchmarks, I've noticed a slow drop on framerates (about 20-30 3Dmarks) but it seems that GPU is much faster than any previous driver (poly rate is higher than ever, 17.8 Mpolys and 5 Mpolys on 3dmark 2001). By the wise, my system is an 1.4 Thunderbird with 300FSB, 256 DDR 2-2-2 and A GeForce2MX at 195-207 core/mem

Do any of you geeks use Intel? AMD sucks!!!!! Save a little money for more configuration issues, tons of crashing and undocumented problems. Why? Intel has never given me a problem on any hardware system I've installed it on. Intel is faster and much more robust than anything AMD hacks. By the way, intel doesn't cost anymore than AMD these days.

well im about to either get a new g4 or get a ati card.........i think the g3s are about done for performance and also........to the originator of this post as far as your scores .......how com you use ecc ram?i have non ecc corsair and i get consistant 8000 on 3dm2k1?
data/avatar/default/avatar04.webp
Absolutely agree with you! AMD is sucks and you pay a very big money for this sucks processor! INTEL is much better (and ALWAYS WAS!) faster and chiper these day! Why people are so stupid :( ?? INTEL is RULEZ! :))

I agree, I use intel for reliabilty and video editing. however we can not claim that p4's are faster than athalon xp's. The whole debate over amd vs intel is silly, people just need to decide whether to sacrafice a little bit of speed for better operation, or not. At least i dont have to worry about driver problems with my p4. I'll sacrafice a little gaming speed for compatability any day.

Maybe, the AMD processor is cheaper or better. But what will you do with a system with lot of problems and no stability: BSOD, problems with chipset drivers,specially via drivers, nvidia driver failed and so on. My P4 rocks very well. OK, my PC was not cheap, but it is very very stable with any OS.
