Panzertruppe Posted November 5, 2003 Share Posted November 5, 2003 On an older P3-866 with a Geforce 2 MX/200 what are the best drivers to be using for the CM games and all games in general? (CM and dozens of other games work perfectly now but driver version is 4.13.0001.2311). Do we need an upgrade? Thanks Bill 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monty Posted November 5, 2003 Share Posted November 5, 2003 If all games you play work ok, i'll say no reason to update drivers. Newer drivers can give an increase in performance for some (new) games, but "can" give problems with CM. Its all a tryal and error case. For CM, the detonator 30.82 drivers seem to be the best allround drivers. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Treeburst155 Posted November 6, 2003 Share Posted November 6, 2003 It depends on your operating system. I've found that the 40.72 drivers work excellently with Win ME and a Ti4200. I can use full FSAA and full AF with NO alt-tabbing. I cannot use 2x or Quincunx FSAA however, unless I am willing to alt-tab. With Win XP, things are a bit worse. I have to go back to the 30.xx drivers to avoid alt-tabbing if I want FSAA. The problem with the 30.xx drivers is that you have no Anisotropic Filtering available unless you download an app like RivaTuner. AF really makes CM look better. I think it helps every bit as much as FSAA. Treeburst155 out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panzertruppe Posted November 6, 2003 Author Share Posted November 6, 2003 Thanks guys.....I'll stick with the older drivers as they have never had any problem with this machine. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
