No change from the previous drivers set except for the audio drivers and control panel. In fact the Ethernet drivers are of a lower version than the leaked 3.44 driver set.

But the audio drivers are a real disappointment. NVIDIA managed to fix the disappearing rear channels, but in the process managed to drop the centre channel.

Wasn't it the IDE drivers that caused the problem with the last set?

The windows default driver is pretty fast anyway, I don't think the board/nf2 could offer much extra performance for IDE as it is - it seems in line with other chipsets. Might be a bit in it for UDMA133 drive owners.

Oh mannnn! This is just like what we went through with VIA when their first came chips out...Don't look for this to get better all of a sudden any time soon. IMHO

Dunno about the rest of you guys but i think i gained some stability
in Dual channel mode.

Im now running at 212x11.5 on my Tbred 2600 (333-256 cache)

Now this was only able to work as single channel without random reboots etc. but now i can run stable at D.C successfully running benches in 3dm 2k3 and 2k1.

The audio driver and control panel have to be matching versions otherwise you will get errors.

There is a lot of hoohar on nForcersHQ Forum . Loads of peps are having troubles.

Look in the drivers board, and there is a thread that might help you out.

Beg to differ. I left the newest audio control panel installed and am using the 5.10.2934.0 audio drivers, which are the last version that screwed with the sound quality, or had problems with rear or centre channels. Everything works perfectly fine for me.

Thanks Leaskovski


Edit: Other than that small problem they seam to work fine. USB works both 1.1 and 2.0. I didnīt change the IDE driver tho, still running with 2.03 on that one :P

I installed and found the main part of the audio CP was inaccessible. Then uninstalled plus driver cab cleaner (from driverheaven) in safemode and installed again and it works.

Anyone else having problems with "chip munk" effect when EAX is enabled (epecially in UT2k3). It seams to be more often when playing online.

(chip munk in the sense that for a breef time 0.2 s one gets massive feedback somehow in the audio sound like a squeel of a chip munk )

Better off with 3.44. They are fairly stable and the IDE driver appears to be fixed.

Im just sticking with the 2.03 until my next upgrade. I dont think for as long as Nforce 2 will be out they will have this stuff fixed. Not until Nforce 3, then you will see the sound storm taken away, with IDE Improvements.

They are not going to keep spending the money on drivers and wasting there time.

Lazy Nvidia
