New Nvidia beta drivers 23.10

[cornbread]

Here is a link for the new *beta* drivers 23.10. I have NOT tried these so use at your own risk.

23.10 (http://www.maxreboot.com/article.php?sid=2739)

I tried the drivers and I would say there is no difference between these or the 22.80, although I did not do any benchmarks.

I installed them and they seem great! I haven't had time to benchmark.

I tried them, they work great and I bencmarked them. My best out of three on 3DMark2001 was 7699, where as my best with the 22.80 was 7687. So I dont see any difference between the two. Those benchmarks were all stock and no overclocking, so there were no variables.

How did you get these drivers to install in WIN XP? I get a message that these drivers are not supported and windows xp cannot continue the installation.
Windows XP is using the drivers that came with the os.
drivers are 5.1.2001.0 date july 1 01, from microsoft.
With these drivers I cant get the OGL to work correctly.
While playing tribes my mouse doesnt work correctly. It gets all shaky. I dont have a sound card in either.
I just want some real drivers that work :(



I have:
ASUS A7V266
1.4 t bird
GF2 MX200 32 sdram

First I installed the drivers on a disk. I then went to Device Manager, Dislay Adapters, Driver ,Update Driver, and then everything is self explanatory. I just installed them from disk. I never had a problem installing any nvidia drivers on WinXP.

how is the 3d and 2d img quality using 23.10?

I tried it from disk and it totally works. Thanks a million.
Ive been playing tribes and a few other games. So far no more
BSOD and auto reboot. Tribes even runs smoother that it has ever done so in the past. No more lock-ups at all.
I love these drivers.
I think I have finally gotten win XP home edition to run smoothly.
You wouldn't believe how many programs I had to remove and reinstall.
Thanks again!!!!!!

400 point difference. Yes, I said FOUR FREAKIN HUNDRED point increase on my powercolor geforce2 pro from 21.83 drivers. Can you say SCHAWEET! :D

Now we'll see how well these drivers handle overclocking...

Yep, that's what I did too and they installed just fine.

Btw, good to hear the good news you guys are having, hopefully they will stay stable. :)

I'm GUESSING THIS IS only to do with the MX because I have that pop-up too just ignore it and press continue anyways, the regular drivers that come with windows XP ARE HORRIBLE there's no opengl,

Get that and nvidia refresh fixer :)

They didn't seem as stable in max payne as the 21.83.
23.10=lockup
21.83=no problems

didn't even try to bench them after the lockups

23.10's give me terrible graphical issues in 3DMark2001. My GainwardG3 Ti/550 seems very fussy with all these newer drivers compared to my Elsa Gladiac Geforce2 GTS. So I'm stuck with the 21.81's for now.
