BETA Drivers How Long Before WHQL

How long does it usualy take for any Windows BETA driver to become WHQL tested a month maybe 2 I've always wondered how long they take. And can anyone tell me about small but not really bad driver problem I'm having. If I install the 66.93 drivers for my 5200 and if I add a profile say to Dungeon Siege which I'm currently playing at the mo. I change the settings to it and click on APPLY but when I close the box down and then go back into it. It saves the profile but dosn't save the exact settings I put. Why is this?

dunno about your settings profile for the game. Dungeon Siege is REALLY good at making its own settings.

as for WHQL certification, i don't know how long it takes. I'm quite sure its a LONG time, seeing as how NVIDIA betas are at like Beta 72 or something... and the officials are at 66.93.
