    Wow..

    A 200 point jump is quite good, that helps some people break the next 1000 point barrier. Its a drastic improvement. I'll have to upgrade my drivers.. of course I cant wait for the new detonators (3x.xx) because they're supposed to be better for GF4 but hey, its a start.

    This driver has done one great thing for me, running a GF3 Ti200. It has stopped Morrowind crashing to Desktop so often! I played it last night for a full 2 hours without any crash, I just hope it wasn't a fluke.

    You need to find a tweak prog and turn on Buffer Biasing to fix that problem.

    I still use Detonator 5.13 drivers... 3dmark2001 SE score is 9357 :biggrin: Don't ask how, nothing special under here

    ...Well maybe having the GF3 TI200 clocked at 250/550 makes the difference
