gack. Their production drivers are enough of a problem. I can't imagine what
their beta drivers are like.

Re: Beta driver from Nvidia for Vista 64 Release 163.75

The last three releases have been pretty good. No problems here, anyway.
Now, how many posters over in Vista can't even get it to install with quite
a few ATI video cards?
Haven't seen anyone who had that problem with nVidia. :-)

Re: Beta driver from Nvidia for Vista 64 Release 163.75

Don't know, since I don't go there. And you know I'll always have a tough
time with the nvidia folks because of the mess that their chipsets caused
all of us. (I'm STILL getting email from folks who have to do the
install/uninstall routine.)

Re: Beta driver from Nvidia for Vista 64 Release 163.75

Hi Charlie

I'm still looking for a new driver for my card.The only one that works fine
for me so far is the one installed with the RTM 9746.

Re: Beta driver from Nvidia for Vista 64 Release 163.75

Andre:
Is that you over there?
Where have you been all this time?
Regarding to NVidia drivers, and I must be an exception, I have had so far
no problems with the subsequent whql releases.
I always took care of uninstalling the old version, rebooting into VGA, and
then installing the newer drivers.
My kids play many games without glitches.
Current card is an MSI8600GTSOC.

Re: Beta driver from Nvidia for Vista 64 Release 163.75

Kue2:
Quite strange.
The latest 163.69's work flawlessly on two different Vista x64 PC's with ECS
N7900GS-256MX card and another one with an MSI 8600GTSOC card.
Games like Lost Planet, Medal Of Honor Airborne work beautifully.

Re: Beta driver from Nvidia for Vista 64 Release 163.75

I'm using a Asus mother board K8v se deluxe & a Asus Video Card with Nvidia
drivers & have not found one that works properly except for the RTM version
9746. I tried every version since loading the RTM. I still get the Nvidia
nvlddmkm.sys error.
I have been working with Microsoft trying to solve ,but no luck so far. I
had them take my computer over (remote control) a couple times now. I loaded
all the latest hot fixes they provided but still no luck.I have an on-going
support case about this problem.

Re: Beta driver from Nvidia for Vista 64 Release 163.75

They did have a lot of problems the early Vista drivers with a lot of driver
stopped working messages. There was just a funny one with the ATI cards in
Vista, it became obvious that the install was having problems with the video
card, an x1550 card, so he swapped card for an x1300 with his grandmother.
Vista installed on his machine with the x1300, but when he went to swap back
with grandma, she wouldn't give it back.

Re: Beta driver from Nvidia for Vista 64 Release 163.75

Yeah, there was a known issue with certain ATI cards for a while. The
workaround was actually quite simple - booting to safe mode and installing
an updated driver or explicitly setting a "safe" video mode. But the built
in Windows driver in the Vista media has problems with the 15xx and 16xx
cards, for sure.

Re: Beta driver from Nvidia for Vista 64 Release 163.75

Not to bring coals to Newcastle, I have an NVIDIA 6200 which came with my
system (AMD 5200+ w/Vista 32-bit). I bought the system in May and until
Friday, October 26 it worked fine. On Friday I began to see a strange graphic
display, display driver death, constant driver reboots, and eventually the
MS-DOS BSOD. Microsoft sent a notification that the problem was caused by
NVIDIA, but I just installed 3 drivers including a Beta (163.69, 163.75 &
96.85). No luck. Rather than casting blame it might be a good time for
Microsoft to coordinate a solution. My system is effectively dead. The only
solution that I can think of is to scrub the partition and reload the initial
OS and software, and disable automatic update, although I just might go out
and get Windows XP which seems more reliable. Not being particularly adept,
should I uninstall the drivers, reboot and install 163.69?
 
Re: Beta driver from Nvidia for Vista 64 Release 163.75

The latest beta driver is version 169.04.
Go Here : http://www.nvidia.com/Download/betadrivers.aspx?lang=en-us
Uninstall any previous installed drivers for your video card first.
I would not recommend installing "beta drivers" unless you know how to
recover your system if sometimes goes wrong. Here is the site for the
recommended driver:
http://www.nvidia.com/object/winvista_x86_163.69.html Please be sure to
uninstall all previously installed Nvidia video drivers. Also turn off your
anti-virus & anti-spyware programs. Including Windows defender.

Re: Beta driver from Nvidia for Vista 64 Release 163.75

If all else fails use system restore to go back to a date before Friday.
