Nvidia 78.01 drivers for 6600 series and above great for Lockon , newer drivers fail!

Do not use the nvidia drivers above 78.01 for any 6600 series nvidia card. Not sure if 6800 series is affected.

 

Sometimes game will play great and sometimes what you see on your monitor will be symtoms of a defective video card! Will only occur in lock on game. So far FEAR is on this box and it worked great, going back to 78.01 fixed my problems.

Strange but good info.

 

I have been using version 81.95 on my cards without any problems.

 

Have you been over to http://www.nvnews.net ?

no i havent but my post still remains true. I expect it was some crap they thown in for 7800 series that screwed it up for me. Like always different hardware configs can produce diff results. anyway these are my results.

You guys are using reference drivers? You're seriously hindering your card by using nVidia reference drivers.

 

Try the 81.94v2 XTreme-G Drivers found here ==> http://www.tweaksrus.com/index.php?option=com_docman&task=cat_view&Itemid=1&gid=127&orderby=dmdate_published&ascdesc=DESC

 

You will think your card grew another GPU.
