Well I tried about 10 different drivers some worked really crappy but they worked and most didn’t work at all with the DR client..

But I finally found some that works <DECENT> and I guess you can't ask for more then that from :puke: mythic.. :puke:


Well for those of you that have the same problem i found these to be the best: http://www.nvidia.com/object/winxp_2k_81.94.html



and too everyone that works for Mythic :kissit:

I've been considering buying this card... have you found any better drivers yet or does DR still only run "decently"?

I'm using that card now as well - XFX brand.

I have the Nvidia driver 8.4.2.1 dated 09/03/06 and have to say I have noticed the odd 'lightning bolt' style of gfx glitch flickering up every now and again.

I did have a real panic when I first played DR because the first time I went for a run with the new comp (had upgraded whilst accounts were dormant and came back after DR launched) I had a real slideshow everytime any sort of numbers of ppl were around. I never crashed at any time tho.

For daoc I have all my settings at 'Performance' rather than 'Quality' levels which blows chunks considering my pc eats up the high quality settings on Oblivion and WoW. :puke:

Query to the other posters - are the Forceware drivers you are talking about good for single core cpu's as well (I'm no pc expert :) )and can someone post a link to them please. :worthy:

I use these atm because i am running benchmarks on my pc (newely built so needs tweaking)

84.21 are the latest,
whether you install the Forceware software is up to you,
i personally stuck with the MSI software as my card was made by them and has dynamic overclocking when it is needed

Yes they will work fine on a single core.

as with everything else remember to uninstall the previous drivers before installing new drivers

Aha found the thread, had exact same problem as you when i first installed my card
