    Best Drivers for GeForce 3 Deluxe

    Hi All!

    I know this card is so over the hill its in the sea, but I was wondering if anyone could point me as to the best Dets to use with it.

    I originally had the 12.90s on there and it was smooth as. I've now put XP Pro on the machine, using the default drivers that installed and it's running like a complete 'tard.

    any suggestions?

    TIA!

    the ones that come default with xp arent full blown drivers.

    just get the latest ones form the nvidia website,

    thanks for the quick reply!

    I would get the latest drivers from the site, however someone here (sorry i cant remember who!) said that the latest 50 series weren't best optimised for the DX8 GF3 and actually made them slower?

    true ..

    my old geforce 3 like the 40.72 the most.
    http://www.nvidia.com/object/winxp-2k_40.72.html

    most stable and fastest... but they might have problems with newer games... thats where the newest drivers might have a fix.

    basically its trial and error.
