That's typical, older card = better drivers.

With new cards such as the geForce 9 series, you'll get crappy drivers in the beginning, but they'll get better over time.

I had the same thing with my 8800 GTX. When I first got it, it had some really shitty drivers. But now, the drivers are extremely stable with some darn good speed.

Another thing Michael, is once you get your internet up, you will want to download the drivers from "nVidia's" website, and not anyone else's; drivers that come on a cd have always been crappy.

Huh yeah the drivers on the cd were crappy, though the ones on Nvidia are not even better :)
I downloaded the ones on the Asus website (what is weird is that there are actually two different kind of drivers for one card....). The nvidia ones are working unproperly but the Asus ones are perfect.

My computer is a HP (Hewlett Package)
I dunno why but I found that really funny, no offense :dance:

One day I may eventually get round to posting my "rig"
