Anyone use Nvidia 81.98 drivers?

Post by hike1 »

I'm not getting any open gl stuff in the new Rendermonkey

http://www.ati.com, it makes normal maps by the way, so I'm thinking
of upgrading from 56 to 81.98, but I heard the newer Nvidia
drivers will crash your machine, which makes me wonder why
they issue them..

i had to roll mine back not soon after installation, cause nothing was shwoing up, on the directx side or opengl side......diablo 2 wouldn't run at all.RF was twitchy at best, and milkshape puked every 3 minutes.I went back to the 56 driver....and am staying there.

I have a 5200, running 81.98 and the only conflict I had was with RF, until QOD made his change in the D3D driver. Now I have no problems with any programs.

I don't find the 5200 crappy at all. I like it.
