Got get em here:
http://www.nvidia.co.uk/object/winxp_2k_97.92_uk.html

Edit: After much fighting with Adobe reader I've managed to find the changelog:

Issues Resolved in Version 97.92
The following are changes made and issues resolved in driver version 97.92:
Single-GPU Issues Resolved
• Splinter Cell Double Agent: Some surfaces are corrupt.
• Halo: Character images are corrupted.
• Oblivion: Streaks appear in the sky after a few minutes of gameplay.
• 3DMark06 reports incorrect driver performance when using CSAA:16Q
antialiasing.
• Blue-screen crash occurs when burning a DVD while watching TV.
• Updated NVIDIA Control Panel categories do not install–the previous driver
version remains.
• NVIDIA Control Panel: Error occurs on the help page when “smoothness” or
“jagged” links are clicked from the Adjust Image Settings with Preview page.
SLI Mode Issues Resolved
• SLI: The SLI profile for any application is ignored if steam.exe is running
and the application resolution does not match the desktop resolution.

Known Issues:

NVIDIA Issues—Single GPU
• The media player hangs when playing MPEG2 HD video clips using
overlay in 1080i and then switching to full-screen mode.
This issue does not occur in other HD modes or with VMR.
• Memory clock changes cannot be performed in multi-monitor mode.
This issue does not apply to single-display mode.
• Battlefield 2: Corruption and flickering occur in the grass when video
settings are set to High.
• Star Wars: Republic Commando: Application crashes when starting a
new game.
• Tiger Woods 2006: Flickering shadows appear during gameplay.
• After switching from S-Video to Component format, the setting
reverts back to S-Video on some HDTVs.
• Call of Juarez: Corrupted vertical shadows appear during gameplay.
• Switching from Vertical Span mode to Horizontal Span mode causes
the NVIDIA Control Panel to crash.
• Running Direct3D applcations when in rotate mode results in

NVIDIA Issues—SLI Mode
• Company of Heroes, SLI: Screen corruption occurs when ʺEnhance
the Application Settingʺ mode is set to 4x or 8x in the NVIDIA Control
Panel.
• 3DMark 2005: Intermittent, horizontal, single-pixel width lines are
drawn on the screen during CPU Test 1
This issue does not occur with VSync enabled.
• With SLI mode enabled, playing a DVD from Windows Media Player
or PowerDVD on an HDTV at 480i or 480p causes the system to hang.
• The system boots with a blank display if the monitor is moved to the
second GPU.
To work around this issue, connect the monitor into the display connector
that is closest to the motherboard, on the first GPU (the one closest to the
CPU).
• Far Cry, SLI: Flickering and shifting sky occurs in the Research level
when SLI is enabled.
This issue does not occur with V-Sync enabled.
• Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter: The desktop becomes corrupted
after exiting the game when the SLI split line is enabled.
This issue does not occur when the SLI split line is disabled.
• Serious Sam 2, SLI: SLI split line does not show any scaling until a
resolution change is made.
Although the SLI split line is not moving, FRAPS still should show
performance scaling.
• Playback fails on Cyberlink Blu-ray player through component-out
HDTV at 720p and 1080i.
480p mode plays back with no issues.
• When setting HDTV mode at 1080p resolution, there is no TV display
output. When connecting Composite PAL mode, there is noise on the
display.
• Changes to the Flat Panel Scaling options are not saved when closing
and reopening the NVIDIA Control Panel.

ʺWeather Detailsʺ High setting is selected from the game control
panel.
