Offtopic.

Knight_Rider i currently have the 177.39 linked to the front page..These are hosted direct from Nvidia....

In the future can you please post any different drivers in separate threads please.It just looks to confusing having multiple drivers in a single thread...

Thanks in advance.

Yup wanted to but I thought the versions are too near and it's gonna be more confusing for users. Will separate out like the 177.40 next round.
