WinXP/2k 28.84 and NT 28.85

EFA11 · May 8, 2002, 11:00 PM

Made a post at the site, guess this is a good first post here huh? heh Ill do a copy & paste from our site.

I found these links at The GameBox . They are linking directly to NVIDIA and at this point, I haven't seen NVIDIA's driver pages updated. I assume they are still working on them and may not be complete. I gave the WinXP Drivers a go. I ran 3dmark and they are in par with the 28.32's. They do not have the installer (executable zip file), but are digitally signed drivers. I am pretty sure the only differences between the 28.84 and 28.32 are the digital signatures, but I could be wrong.

I sent an email to NVIDIA last night, prior to posting these today. I have yet to hear anything from them and this post could be edited soon to remove the links, or to add additional info.

Detonator XP v28.84 for Windows XP/2000
Detonator XP v28.85 for Windows NT4

3 Cheers for The GameBox.

The drivers in question were released with Quadro cards in mind. You can find links to them here - http://www.nvidia.com/view.asp?PAGE=pg_20010527321700

They only support the following cards:

NVidia.Nv10DDR = "NVIDIA GeForce DDR"
NVidia.Nv10GL = "NVIDIA Quadro"
NVidia.Nv11 = "NVIDIA GeForce2 MX/MX 400"
NVidia.Nv11GL = "NVIDIA Quadro2 MXR/EX"
NVidia.Nv15 = "NVIDIA GeForce2 GTS/GeForce2 Pro"
NVidia.Nv15GL = "NVIDIA Quadro2 Pro"
NVidia.Nv17.3 = "NVIDIA GeForce4 MX 420"
NVidia.Nv17GL.1 = "NVIDIA Quadro4 500/550 XGL"
NVidia.Nv17GL.2 = "NVIDIA Quadro4 200/400 NVS"
NVidia.Nv20 = "NVIDIA GeForce3"
NVidia.Nv20.2 = "NVIDIA GeForce3 Ti 500"
NVidia.Nv20DCC = "NVIDIA Quadro DCC"
NVidia.Nv25.4 = "NVIDIA GeForce4 Ti 4200"
NVidia.Nv25GL.1 = "NVIDIA Quadro4 900 XGL"
NVidia.Nv25GL.2 = "NVIDIA Quadro4 750 XGL"
NVidia.Nv25GL.4 = "NVIDIA Quadro4 700 XGL"
