im assuming thats a typo did you have any issues with .55? clocks stuck in 2D mode?

 

[hclarkjr]

oops, yes that is typo. i have had 0 issues to date with the 55's so far. ran some benches and seen no noticeable difference from 191.04 driver i upgraded from

after exiting any game with those drivers my clocks would revert back to 2D speeds (listed on your info as "standard 2D") as is normal , but when starting another game or the same game the clocks would stick at 2D speeds instead of upping to 3D automatically , i noticed straight away as i was getting around 30fps loss ingame ! , only a reboot would sort it out , its definately a driver issue but obviously one that not everyone encountered

 

[hclarkjr]

did not notice any sticking when running the benchmarks i use to test out new drivers, namely 3dmark vantage. i have my sidebar setup with everest ultimate to show the video card settings. they function normally for me

NEW NVIDIA 195.62 WHQL version released for mobile computers. See first post for more details.

 

[Brink]

New NVIDIA PhysX System Software 9.09.1112 available. See first post for more details.

 

[hclarkjr]

brink, does this also need to be installed with the driver? isn't it incorporated into the driver?

 

[Brink]

Hello Harry,

The driver does include the older 9.09.0814 version of Physx in it, but this separate updated software bundle different from the driver one will only install the newer version 9.09.1112 Physx part to replace the older one and not the NVIDIA driver.

 

[hclarkjr]

ok, just downloaded it and installed it. thanx for the headsup!!

What's the difference between forceware and WHQL? Excuse my ignorance, I'm more of a Hardware guy..
