r0tten Posted May 7, 2003 Share Posted May 7, 2003 Hello... I have to use Detonator 43.51 for Unreal2, but with these drivers CMBB runs terrible (known bug). Has anyone tried to configure his PC with Hardware Profiles (under ->System) so that you can run Detonator 30.87 under Config1 and 43.51 under Config2? Is this possible to do with the standard NVidia driver installers? Is there any speed issue due to multiple drivers on you system? Well, I could try this, but I want to ask first if anyone has tried this before I frag my system And if no one has tried, I will do so.... Bye, r0tten, little bit annoyed about this speed bug, NVidia and their drivers. :mad: 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AstroCat Posted May 7, 2003 Share Posted May 7, 2003 I've thought about this, or perhaps even a dual boot. If you try it let me know if it works. I'll do the same. Jordan 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erwin Rommel Posted May 7, 2003 Share Posted May 7, 2003 A dual boot will work..As I am running one now.I have 2 80 GB hard drives and one is running WinXP and the other is running Win ME and both are running different driver versions. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phil stanbridge Posted May 7, 2003 Share Posted May 7, 2003 Yes, a dual boot is the only solution I can think of off the top of my head. The hardware profile option won't work I don't think?? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r0tten Posted May 7, 2003 Author Share Posted May 7, 2003 It did not work I created 2 different profiles, then I installed the 30.87 Detonator, rebootet and when I chose 43.51er config he had 30.87. I think it wont work 'cause of the 100 system files the driver needs and the 30.87 just overwrote... Switched back to 30.87. Unreal2 is for kiddies. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Epée Posted May 13, 2003 Share Posted May 13, 2003 Where can I get the 30.87 drivers? The new ones are terrible... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phil stanbridge Posted May 13, 2003 Share Posted May 13, 2003 www.guru3d.com. Be warned, these drivers will only work with AGP 4x cards and not the newer AGP 8x cards. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MeatEtr Posted May 13, 2003 Share Posted May 13, 2003 Hmm, whats the deal with my card. I got the 5800 Ultra and it says in the cards properties that its AGP 4X. Anybody know how i can go about changing this? Although this could just be a glitch. Since it also says that i have DirectX 8.1 which i know for a fact that i have 9.0. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does your motherboard support AGP 8X? Might be it can only go up to 4x... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MeatEtr Posted May 15, 2003 Share Posted May 15, 2003 Jarmo, im not sure. I have a ASUS P4T533-C RDRAM motherboard. Is that good or bad? How can i find out what AGP my motherboard can handle? Sorry for being clueless. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madmatt Posted May 15, 2003 Share Posted May 15, 2003 The new official 44.03 Nvidia drivers (released a recently) fix the framerate issue. FSAA is still broke but that is easy to work around. Madmatt 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MeatEtr Posted May 16, 2003 Share Posted May 16, 2003 Scratch my last question, my motherboard is only AGP 4X. How important is the speed of the Advanced Graphics Port? Have i just pissed my money away by getting the Ultra 5800? Since the card is AGP 8X, but its restricted to AGP 4X cause of my motherboard. :confused: [ May 15, 2003, 09:38 PM: Message edited by: MeatEtr ] 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
