Super-Bob 0 Posted February 23, 2003 Share Posted February 23, 2003 There are all these beta detonators and people keep saying how great they are. Then why is it that whenever I try and use them I get no display? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
firefly2442 0 Posted February 23, 2003 Share Posted February 23, 2003 Personally, I don't trust beta software/drivers in general. They're often buggy. I just wait for full release/stable version. Getting a couple for fps for the time involved just isn't appealing to me. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Stinger 0 Posted February 23, 2003 Share Posted February 23, 2003 I installed (or so I thought) the 42.86's this time w/ my new format. But they never went so I put in the 42.68's and they are fine so far... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
snakebite1967 0 Posted February 23, 2003 Share Posted February 23, 2003 i mess around with the betas when i find them usualy a bench or two but always seem to go back to 29.42 its been the most stable for me even tho it drops 700 points of my mad onion bm Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Stinger 0 Posted February 23, 2003 Share Posted February 23, 2003 Screw nVidia, as I mentioned earlier I was at the 42.68 drivers. I turned on my puter and got what was the equivalent of safe mode gfx wise. I had to go back all the way to 41.09's. And they will hopefully be okay. I have no idea what on earth made my puter all of a sudden go all safe mode looking on me. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
snakebite1967 0 Posted February 23, 2003 Share Posted February 23, 2003 well remember tho beta drivers are just that generaly not ever to be released and only a stepping stone to a better released driver Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I will agree with you that the 29.42 is the most stable driver available for the GF cards, but I am actually getting better FPS than with the 41.09 and above. The 40 Series drivers IMO are crap, as I have had more issues with them than any other driver I've installed. And they are WHQL Pending??? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
snakebite1967 0 Posted February 24, 2003 Share Posted February 24, 2003 tell me about it ya i get lower BM scores but the game runs smoothly and as im run at 85hz refresh rate im stuck at 85 fps on high most times Quote Link to post Share on other sites
