latest nvida drivers should still be avoided

[edanuff]

Just wanted to post my recent experience in setting up a cabinent using gamex. It was absolutely necessary to use the 66.93 drivers for my video card (an oldish Geforce3 Ti500). All sorts of font and drawing problems which went away once I downgraded to the 66.93 drivers. Now everything is working great.

I really wish Nvidia would get it together with the 7 series drivers. I moved from ATI to NVidia because I was tired of ATI driver headaches, and NVidia has been worse!

I am about to set up a winxp x64 computer so I think I have to use the 7 series 64bit drivers becuase I can't find anything older At least it's not my GameEx computer!

I'm just running 32 bit windows on my A64. I don't want the headaches.

this realy sucks if i install nhl 2006 and use that old drivers the game gets all messed up but if i use the latest ones it works fine but gameex goes very slow

also when i use gameex in old drivers if i have vsync on gameex starts to do funnny things

I had x64 installed for about 10 minutes by the time I decided to scrap it and reinstall 32.

-daemon won't work

-winrar won't shell for right clicks

-audio driver that came with the mother board didn't work

-zone alarm suite won't install

That's as far as I got before I decided to wait 6 months before I might give it another shot!
