Best V2 driver for nforce/Athlon combo?
23.07.03 at 11:13:34

Hi,

Currently building a system with the following:-

Athlon 2600XP 333FSB
MSI K7N2 delta Mobo
512MB DDR RAM
80GB harddrive
Geforce 2 Titanium graphics (upgrading soon!)
Two Creative Voodoo 2 12MB cards in SLI mode.

Running Windows 2000 OS.

Can anyone give the best recommendation for drivers for this rig.

Currently I'm using the standard drivers on a Pentium II machine with no problems, but I've read that Athlon processors require special third party drivers.

Reply #1 - 23.07.03 at 17:34:28 I don't think there are any Athlon friendly Windows 2000 (or NT or XP) drivers. You'll just have to try Anthony's driver and hope for the best. I could be wrong. I'm a Windows 98 man myself. Can't remember the last time I booted my XP partition...

What exactly is the issue with using the reference drivers with Athlon systems? I really only need these cards for Glide applications. All the direct 3D and Open Gl is better served by my Geforce 2 card. Andy
