The "Update Driver" option downloads Microsoft's driver for it which doesn't
have OpenGL support. You won't be able to run OpenGL games with those
drivers.

You should download a driver from:
http://www.nvidia.com/object/winxp_2k_77.77.html ( which may not work on the
TNT )

OR

http://www.nvidia.com/object/winxp-2k_archive.html

and get an older driver which'll work for you.

Whatever happens don't use the M$ driver for it as 'tis crippled.

Hi,

I have Riva TNT2 Model 64 on Dell Dimension 4100.
I recently reinstalled XP with SP2.
The display driver installed by XP was 5.6.7.3 dated 4/7/2004.
I clicked on "Update Driver" and XP found and installed new driver.
However, this time the version shows 4.5.2.3 dated 7/23/2003.

I'm confused. Did it go back to the older version or is 5.6.7.3
Microsoft's version for this adapter and is 4.5.2.3 the nVidia's
version?

Which one should I use?

Thanks,
Glenn
