I've had no problems, regardless of what driver versions there are/were. And I have been running all types of Nvidia cards from the GF3Ti200/500, GF4Ti4600/4800 and now the GF FX5900 Ultra. And like you, I have noticed fps increases when I've gone to the newer drivers (And I understand that the 46.20 are only beta's, which I'm currently running on all my systems). I guess the next step maybe to checkout the Nvidia forum and see what someone there has to say. http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/forumdisplay.php?s=&forumid=14 Wolf -- Open WebMail Project (http://openwebmail.org)
