    Question Nvidia driver update question...

    How do you go about updating the drivers on an Nvida G3 Ti200? I'm a DR (Damn rookie ) so give me all the steps. I've read in here about using Det Destroyer to eliminate the old drivers so I guess you can't just download and install the latest driver version? Mine are the 21.88 version which is not up-to-date so can somebody walk me thru the steps for this process? Thanks in advance!

    first of all, i think the 21.88 drivers should be fine, i don't beleive that there is any performance boost for upgrading...

    second, nvidida is really good at packaging their drivers in an exe file that pretty much takes care of itself... i don't think it's all that necissery to use the det destroyer, but you could go ahead and try, that's just going to take a few more steps than simply running the exe

    BTW IMO the 23.11's are the best overall drivers. Certain video cards do do better with the 22.xx series but I don't know anyone getting getter overall performance results with 21.xx over 23.11
