Hi guys.. I am trying to fix my friends computer.. Here is the specs:


Tbird 1400-133 fsb
Abit kg7 raid mobo
Geforce2mx 400

The default drivers are installed for all parts of his computer.. He doesn't have broadband so he hasn't updated any driver.. I have installed my broadband on his computer to update all his drivers.. So, What are the best drivers for his geforce2mx 400.. Rigth now with the current drivers I get a puny 3120 on 3dmark 2000 with the default benchmark!! My system gets 5400 on it.. Hehe..

There were also hardware conflicts and irq conflicts all over the place.. I will be fixing those later after I update his drivers..

12.90

and anything from 21.85 and above

avoid 20.80 or 21.81 - missing textures

Get 22.50 or the 22.40 (better suport for some Geforces ) !

Thanks guys.. I fixed his computer and optimised the crap out of it.. Now his comp gets 5600 in 3dmark2000 and 3500 in 3dmark2001... Now I need an upgrade..

Is it me? Or does it seem like 3dfx drivers are easier to install?

Maybe I downloaded the wrong ones? There wasn't a setup executable with the detonator drivers I downloaded.. Just a bunch of infs and weird setup files.. Had to manually install them by going into the destop properties and choosing vga mode.. Then restart computer.. Install drivers by going into desktop properties and manually installing the video card drivers.. Weird.. Where did you guys get your drivers? Links would be helpful..

I don't really like using beta drivers so i just use the one's from nvdia..

Win98/ME/XP: ftp://209.213.197.10/Windows/21.83/

Only the official Detonator 4 drivers from Nvidia has the self-installing EXE. The leaked beta drivers have to be installed manually.

aahh.. NO wonder.. Even the beta drivers of 3dfx cards have selfinstallers though which is why I thought that..
