nVidia er på banen med endnu en ny driver v67.66 dateret 13. jan. 2005.

Kan hentes bl.a. via ftp://download.nvidia.com/Windows/67.66/

Opdateringen er primært relevant for brugere af GeForce 6xxx kort.



This following are changes made and issues resolved since driver version
66.93:



.. SLI cards: Half Life 2 performance drops on canals demo with SLI

enabled.

.. GeForce 6800 Ultra, SLI: No performance difference with the game

Lock On Modern Air Combat when SLI mode is enabled.

.. GeForce 6800: Incorrect fog for underwater objects in Half Life 2.

.. SLI cards: Shadows flicker with Source engine games like Half-Life 2

and Counterr-Strike when SLI mode is enabled.

.. Windows XP Media Center Edition, GeForce 6600: Graphical

distortion appears intermittently when cycling through the Media

Center menus.

.. Windows XP Media Center Edition, GeForce 6600: From HDTV

component-out, changing the resolution from 1080i or 720p to 480p

results in 480i being set instead.

.. GeForce 6600 GT: NVIDIA Color Correction does not work when

playing video using VMR.

.. GeForce 6800 LE, PCI-Express: With an HDTV as the secondary

display in Clone mode, the TV loses sync when changing the

resolution to 1080i with Keep Native HDTV resolution selected.

.. Windows Media Center Edition, GeForce PCX 5300: When using

HDTV over DVI, 1080i mode does not sync correctly in native and

underscan modes.

.. GeForce2, GeForce4 MX, Windows XP: City of Heroes crashes to the

desktop intermittently.

.. GeForce 6600 GT AGP: Fixed a 3D corruption problem that appears

when this card is used with certain motherboards, such as SIS

motherboards.



.. GeForce FX 5950 Ultra: Operating system failure with the game Flat

Out.

.. GeForce FX 5950 Ultra, Windows XP: Shadows in the game Angel of

Darkness render incorrectly in a room with two light sources.

.. GeForce 6600, Windows XP Media Center: HDTV 1080i display

corruption occurs when underscan mode is enabled.

.. GeForce FX 5200, Windows XP: Character model shading in the game

Tomb Raider: The Angel of Darkness is rendered red instead of gray

.. GeForce 6 series, Windows XP Media Center 2005: Live TV audio

stutters when viewed in Clone mode using the NVTV Tuner card.

.. GeForce 6800, Windows XP: Video smears once you toggle WMP10 to

fullscreen mode while playing a WMV HD clip.



.. Added new Performance and Quality option-Negative LOD bias

This control lets the user manually set negative LOD bias to "clamp" for

applications that automatically enable anisotropic filtering.

Applications sometimes use negative LOD bias to sharpen texture filtering.

This sharpens the stationary image but introduces aliasing when the scene is

in motion. Because anisotropic filtering provides texture sharpening without

unwanted aliasing, it is desirable to clamp LOD bias when anisotropic

filtering is enabled.

When the user enables anisotropic filtering through the control panel, the

control is automatically set to "Clamp".


Sidstnævnte har også fungeret på nVidia v67.02.

Venligst

En del Forceware 7x.xx findes allerede og skulle efter sigende være noget
godt noget.

Men de er ikke nødvendigvis nyere. Nvidia har i øjeblikket to separate
driver teams, hvor det ene fortrinsvis optimerer for de professionelle kort
(Quadro) og det andet for mainstream kortene. Quadro-gruppen arbejder med
7x.xx driverne og den andet gruppe med 6x.xx driverne. 67.66 er de nyeste
drivere som er lanceret i offentligheden (10. januar 2005), men desværre
indeholder de en del bugs som de foregående 6x.xx drivere ikke havde, bl.a.:

1. Everquest II. Antialiasing giver grafikfejl
2. Antialiasing eller en opløsning på 1600x1200 eller derover giver
grafikfejl i Prince of Persia Warrior Within.

Jeg bruger selv 71.21 driverne, som jeg finder er de bedste all-round
drivere. De nyere 7x.xx drivere har en alvorlig fejl der giver "tisse-gult"
vand i Half-Life 2, så de er no-go for mig.
