RobGoo 0 Posted February 18, 2000 Are we ever going to get the advanced options like we used to in 9.x? I want my opengl settings!!!! Share this post Link to post
YuppieScum 0 Posted February 18, 2000 No, because dicking with those settings can compromise system stability.

Quantus 0 Posted February 18, 2000 Well, just tried the 3.78 Nvidia drivers off of Nvidia's site and seconds after the reboot was completed my system hung. So, in other words, if you system hung in the past, don't bother with these drivers. Is Nvidia ever gonna come out with a driver that won't crash/hang windows 2K. Ever since 3.68, the drivers crash my system hard (which requires a hardware reset). Come on Nvidia, get with the show and listen up....fix this crash problem!!!! -Q Share this post Link to post
Feral 0 Posted February 18, 2000 How about collecting an honest to goodness bug report? Then sending it to Nvidia.. That way they have a list of what works and what doesnt... HMmm??? sounds better than complainin about it. Just my 3 cents. (not a slam) ------------------ When the world comes to a halt, Hold The F*** ON!!! Share this post Link to post
Feral 0 Posted February 18, 2000 Oh and by the way. These drivers work so far! I am gonna play Q3 and Unreal to put them through the wringer and report back here shortly. (if anyone is at all interested.. ) ------------------ When the world comes to a halt, Hold The F*** ON!!! Share this post Link to post
Feral 0 Posted February 18, 2000 Hey Yuppie.... i noticed that you are using "SuperMicro P6DBS (dual UW-SCSI) BIOS 2.2, 2*Celery 300a @ 450Mhz, 384MB PC100 RAM" Where did you get the bus settings from? I havent seen them anywhere! I am using the SM P6DBE.. would you happen to have the bus settings for that board or can you point me in the right direction? Thanks Share this post Link to post
YuppieScum 0 Posted February 18, 2000 What do you mean by bus settings? If you're refering to FSB, that's controlled by the slocket card (MSI-6905 v1.1) that the Celeron sits in. Share this post Link to post
Ekstreme 0 Posted February 18, 2000 installed tried, no probs here, other than my customary format to make Q3 work with the drivers. Everything else works fine otherwise Share this post Link to post
slkh 0 Posted February 18, 2000 Yuppie, Do you have any SoftMenu or jumper setting for bus speed other than 100 Mhz for your SuperMicro motherboard? I will be buying the dual slot 1 GX chipset with SCSI onboard soon. Share this post Link to post
Distar 0 Posted February 18, 2000 well and again an irongate/athlon lockup driver back to 3.66 then ps.: the new creative labs driver locks up too Share this post Link to post

Us gamers should be happy in the next couple of weeks!! ------------------ When the world comes to a halt, Hold The F*** ON!!! Share this post Link to post
EddiE314 0 Posted February 18, 2000 I had to Reinstall Quake3 to get it to work with the 3.78 drivers, plays ok here. Share this post Link to post
Feral 0 Posted February 18, 2000 Eddie? What error messages where you getting while trying to play Q3 after you installed the drivers? It worked fine for me Just curious. ------------------ When the world comes to a halt, Hold The F*** ON!!! Share this post Link to post
flashvc 0 Posted February 19, 2000 I found out that with the new drivers (3.76 and 3.78) Quake would crash if my r_gamma is higher than 1.0, but at 1.0 Quake is VERY dark on my Monitor, now's my Question...when will NVidia actually have proper gamma facilities in their Win2k drivers...under Win9x the Gamma works great. I tried r_ignorehwgamma 1, but then Quake is still a bit dark, and ugly. Oh Yeah, with the new A3D 3.01 Driver, A3D actually works on w2k, but Crashes Horribly after a while =/ __________________________________________ Celeron 400@450 FIC VB-601 Viper V770 Monster MX300 Fujitsu 17.2GB UDMA-66 Windows 2000 - build 2195 Share this post Link to post
