new nVidia Detonator drivers out

[thoriphes]

for our win2k/xp users:

http://download.nvidia.com/Windows/52.16/52.16_win2kxp_english_whql.exe

for everyone else, proceed to www.nvidia.com

some of the versions they are working on are supposed to have support for 64-bit AMD processors, and aren't as different from the normal 32-bit Windows drivers.

I really wish that I still had my old PC here. My favorite past time in my previous life was to download new drivers, tweak the graphics, run 3DMark2001, etc. for really long periods of time.

Nothing like newer official detonator drivers to make everyone happy!

yeah i installed those a few days ago, they are called ForceWare now or something like that.

Cool new features are the mouse behaviours. you can set your mouse so when you do a quick clockwise rotation it can do a particular task(such as minimise or maximise your window)

go to control panel / NView Desktop Manager / Mouse

then all the mouse kinematics features are under there.

In the mouse general section you can apply a feature to throw your windows, as in if you move your mouse left while holding the mouse down in a window and then quickly move right while letting the mouse button go, the window will fly across the screen. Seemed to me the animation was a big jaggy, but fun for a least 2 minutes in your life. lol :P

I have some NVIDIA thing but don't really know how to use it? The little icon in the tray says NVIDIA Media Centre. I like the ability to make windows transparent but it doesn't work. Anyone use this same thing? The thing Thoriphes posted sounds like something similar? :h:

I get this message after updating

[thoriphes]

:P that's pretty funny.

You might want to reinstall the drivers if you already haven't. Also, check the compatibility list for ForceWare on nVidia's site. Your card seems a little old, but may work with only the drivers.

I reinstalled the driver(s) and it work :)

[toshiro]

wow that's probably the funniest error msg I've ever seen

[senocular]

almost as good as the Keyboard not found. Press any key to continue.
