The 52.16 driver includes instructions for the advanced shaders that are
part of the DX9 spec, which only the FX cards include.

Is using the 52.16 drivers with a geforce Ti4200 a waste of time since the
52xx are mainly for the FX series of cards? Should I just use earlier
drivers (44.03 or 45.23)? I don't notice a big difference except for 3D
Mark
scores which go down for the 52.16's. Is there any advantage to using the
newer drivers with an older card?
