Default No more fullscreen video mirror controls in NVIDIA drivers 178.

On 9/27/2008 10:25 PM PT, nospam typed:
I saw "Removed Full-screen video mirror controls from NVIDIA Control Panel" in release 178 on page 8 in
http://us.download.nvidia.com/Window..._Release_Notes
.pdf ....

Currently, I am using 174.74_geforce_winxp_32bit_english_beta.exe which works OK. I haven't upgraded my video card driver for
a while. What was the last driver release (beta or certified) before 178? No more NVIDIA cards and driver after 178 for me.

Thank you in advance.
Not sure , but its a fact that Microsoft required Nvidia to do this.
Then, how come ATI still has its options and full screen? How are we supposed to watch videos fullscreen on our secondary
displays like TVs then?
Buy an ATI card and stop buying nvidia until they realise income is way too down and have to rebring it back in on a future card,
regardless of what Microsoft says.

I'd like to, but I don't have the money to buy another gaming card to replace my old GeForce 7950 GT KO video card.


Use 174.xx and WinXP if you need full screen video mirroring:


Thanks. I recalled using 175.16 driver before I downgraded to 174.16
beta, and it broke my TV out:
http://forums.nvidia.com/index.php?showtopic=68754 (my thread). What's
the latest 174.16 driver? Is it the 174.16 beta? Too many driver versions!
