u can get the drivers for win 2k/xp here. (These are not beta)

http://download1.nvidia.com/Windows/41.03/41.03_win2kxp.exe

i suggest u to uninstall u'r previous drivers using detonator destroyer. u can get it here.

http://www.guru3d.com/detonator-destroyer/

By the way people getting low fps with geforce 4 ti and other nVIDIA cards, make sure u'r Antialiasing is turned off.

For people who dont know how to :-

1. Right click on desktop ---> Properties ----> click on settings tab ----> click on advanced.

2. Here click on the tab that shows the name of u'r card (eg geforce 4 mx 420)

3. On the menu kind of thing on u'r left select performance and quality settings

4. drag the Antialiasing bar all the way to the left. (Turn it off)

Hope it helps, it helped me atleast.

The detonator is great, I tried the driver on a machine equipped with a TNT m64. Before using the driver, the game is unplayable and now, the game is acceptable. I really recommend to you all nVidia guys to have a boost.

Hi,

I'm using WinXP Pro, can I use the detonator destroyer? I read somewhere that it does not support WinXp yet.

I had a problem playing Fifa2003 before (using 40.41) driver and I solved it after I revert to 28.32. Can this 41.03 driver gives better performance?

Thanks.:)

Many thanks

Nop they are only for Nt4/2000/XP. Keep in mind that these drivers are meant for the Quadro series so probably there wont be any for win98/me.

Also one drawback from this set is that they put all AA and AF settings in one place but i think they do this because again this drivers are for Quadros.
