For those who see problems with the latest drivers, 45.23 is considered a
safe bet.

What is the best driver for Ti-4200 now a days ?
It ued to be 44.03 (all newer were slower).
Is this still true (both for Win98 and WinXP) ?

BTW: Anyone now where to get Asus-8420 drivers version 29.41
(have them for Win98, need the WinXP version, there are some
files I need there - to make a good hybrid with 44.03 :-)


I'm still using the 44.03's also. I didn't like any of the newer drivers there
seemed to be too much loss in speed. There is suppose to be a slightly better
version then the 44.03's, but I don't know the exact version just that it's in
the 45's.

I have read posts that the newer drivers work better though using a 4200 with
Doom3. So if you play Doom3 you might want to give the newer drivers a try.

The most stable and versatile driver for the 4200 is the 45.23.

I've had nothing but hassle getting mine to work with doom 3 - is this under
XP?

I would say so because I believe Doom3 is a WinXP only game.

44.67
Runs every game and maintains almost the same speed in benchmarks as older
drivers.
Ofcourse 44.03 is also good but i always preferred the 41.09,
alas,newer games don't run on those and after some googling i found the
44.67
a very good alternative.
Make some safe points when with xp and try them.
I always run 3dmark2001se since my ti4400 is somewhat older today and the
results are very different between de nvidia driver series.
Also run your fav games and try to "feel" if it's different.

It runs on Windows 2000 as well.

Hi,

I installed the NVidia 61.77 reference drivers for my Creative Ti4200,
and got a 20% boost in performance; going from 9900 in 3DMark 2001 to
11000 or so. There was a near doubling of the frame rate in the nature
demo section of the benchmark.

Best regards,
Paul

I have never noticed any improvement with newer drivers on my 4200. Especially
with 3Dmark as a guide.
Which driver version did you upgrade from? I might give the 61.77's a try based
on what you posted. I don't believe I ever tested that version.

Hi,

I can't remember exactly, but they may have been the 53.03 drivers.

I have found the 61.77s very stable.

I have a P4 2.4 OCd to 2.6
Slightly overclocking my Ti4200 too.

Note this overclocking was done BEFORE my change of drivers though. So
it is definately an improvement due to drivers.

Regards,
Paul
