Which nvidia chipset drivers are newer?
Is it the ver 2.41 drivers on the gigabyte site or the ver 3.13 drivers from
the nvidia site? Can't find the release date for the gigabyte drivers. TIA Wemic |

Any drivers at the nVidia site would definitely be the latest. However, the latest drivers aren't always the best. Sometimes, new video drivers cause headaches not present in the older drivers. -- Big Daddy Ruel Smith My SuSE Linux machine uptime: 12:06am up 0:38, 2 users, load average: 0.40, 0.33, 0.24 My Windows XP machine uptime: Something less... |

Actually, I'm not. If Gigabyte, enhanced or tweaked the nVidia drivers,
they would be newer. That's why I asked about the release date. Perhaps should have explained that I'm new to the nForce chipsets having been a Via guy that last several years, thus not acquainted with the numbering conventions.

I don't believe that Gigabyte enhances anything.

Ok....thanks. After getting up this morning with a cleared brain I see that
the older nVidia drivers are 2.41s as well. Thanks. "Ruel Smith (Big Daddy)" wrote in message ... on Sun February 8 2004 12:26 am, Wemic decided to enlighten us with: Actually, I'm not.
