nVidia ForceWare 91.29 Beta

Here's a new set of Forceware Drivers in the shape of 91.29 for Windows 2000/XP these drivers incoorporate the new Control Panel. Obviously you can opt to use the "classic" version also! Dated: 25/05/2006

Station-Drivers

Mirrors: Tweaks R us : Guru3d

I can not find a read me so i should imagine the is very little change since the official 91.28 betas.

But looking at TweaksRus

Snickers is on a distinguished road

Why does x64 get the back treatment and not get the new cp (ive heard the popularity reason before but thats not the reason, they kept up with drivers for both 32 and 64 bit a while back)

It hasn't been released yet you can't download since it's not on their FTP site. Release notes however state that the 91.31s will support the new control panel for x64. Just keep your eyes open.

Edit: no offence taken

Edit number 2: I should have been clearer, it was merely to point out that a x64 control panel is soon close to release.

edit 3: just tried the link again and they seem to be up - website being buggy though may take several attempts, download speeds are slow

I were just about to post a reply to say the new official beta's are now in operation but you're edit #3 beat me to it....

Besides that i had no problems in DL these drives (within 3 minutes) but what has surprised me is the size of the file is the increase in file size 91.28 was 46mb and these 91.31 has broken 60mb.

Yes speed has picked up though should be done soon. Few open issues however listed in the pdf but i'm curious about the new control panel. I run x64 you see.

edit: size of the x64 drivers are 68.3Mb

Well one thing is a problem... custom resolutions do not work with these.. The "test" needed to create it will not work..


I have to go to the regular CP to create it..
