Ti-4200 drivers test AND test of overlay / games color bugs
You have not said which motherboard, BIOS, chipset drivers, and OS is in
use. Without that information, your results don't mean much to others. However, it looks like there is little significant difference in speed and slower results with newer drivers is probably offset by better graphics quality. Lars-Erik Østerud wrote: OK, I spent half the weekend testing drivers for my Ti-4200 card to find the fastest driver AND to try to find a driver that loaded overlay color settings and games profiles color setting after reboot (without having to apply again). Not a success as you can see. None of the drivers in the 6x.xx and 7x.xx series work well on a 4200 card (some feedback I got is that it works on 6x.xx cards though). The other settings for games profiles work (quality etc) but not colors profiles after boot (they work just after jo apply them in the control panel as long as you don't boot, that's tru for the overlay color setting as well). Only thing that works is that the desktop color settings are restored at boottime (I guess they couldn't have missed if this disn't work :-) So it would seem that no one cares about us that bought 42xx series cards anymore :-( I have not managed to get any comment or feedback from Nvidia either :-( Well the test results might be interesting for all 4xxx cards owners anyway, right :-) Any if anyone else can confirm the problem OR have a solution then please tell me!
